The Jesuits Companion thought them so well pronounc'd that he humbly begg'd a Repition though he knew them already by Heart And this favour was presently granted him My smiling Countenance seemed also to applaud them but my silence did not please the Reverend Father He suspected there was something which I dislik'd and entreated me so earnestly to tell him my Thoughts that I could not possibly refuse him At first I prais'd several Passages of them as the foecundo fonte fruitful Spring which the Angel begg'd and the Dat petit amplexus which appear'd to me very significant Yes said he the manner of expressing the thing is not less sweet and fine than emphatical and demonstrative for it denotes a mutual fervency I added that since he permitted me to speak freely I could not forbear telling him that the beginning of the seventh Verse offended me as much as that of the twelfth seemed excellent that the Uterus Womb of which he spake needed no culture according to all outward Appearances that such an Epithet was injurious to her Royal Spouse and in a word that I could by no means endure the Word Inculti Untilled which besides did not well express his thought At first he would have defended himself but he submitted at last and it was concluded that instead of Inculti miserere uteri it should henceforth be O humilem spectes uterum or something to that purpose I would have past over the Vale but he confess'd of his own accord that he put it there only to fill a Gap He admired the Alleluja beyond measure and imagin'd he could never have made a more happy conclusion It is true said I Alleluja is an angelical Word it is an exclamation of Praise and Joy which comes very seasonably where you have plac'd it But you must remember added I that the three first Syllables of Alleluja are long whereas you have made it a Dactyle and this Hebrew Word is written in Greek 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 He excused himself for the Antepenultima by citing * Amen reddidit Alleluïa dixit which is a Phaeleucian Verse Prudentius who had made it short notwithstanding the Greek η which signified little the Word being Hebrew and confessed the Penultima was naturally long But he concluded that the beauty of a thought might excuse the neglect of such niceties of quantity and he resolved at any rate to keep his Alleluja We had already alter'd our Discourse when the young Brother desired permission to criticise on the Natum of the fifteenth Verse He said the Son was not yet born and therefore ought not be called Natum And that he could not think it possible the Name Natus or Filius should be given to an Embryo of half a Minute or at least to the informed matter of a Foetus But the Father-Poet laugh'd at him for this and told him that the Word of the most Holy Lady was a sure Word that Born or to be Born signified the same thing on this occasion that it was properly a Question of the Gender and that we may speak of things that will infallibly happen as of those that are already in Being The Fryar had yet another Objection to make against Natum marem but he only mutter'd a little saying there never was Natus foemina for he was afraid of giving
