Brothers, love is a teacher, but a hard one to obtain: learning to love is hard and we pay dearly for it. It takes hard work and a long apprenticeship, for it is not just for a moment that we must learn to love, but forever.
(Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov)

Merry Christmas
(The hymn is "Colchester" by eighteenth-century English composer William Tans'ur, performed by the Theatre of Voices, led by Paul Hillier.)
Merry Christmas and may God bless you and yours.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas! I love Theatre of Voices.
ReplyDeleteWhoops, I misattributed the hymn! It's "Worcester" by Abraham Wood. Merry Christmas!
