Excerpt from Palestrina His Life and Times Maitland, to whom my deep gratitude is due for valuable criticisms and suggestions. For the translation of the Mantuan letters, etc., I have to thank Mr. J. M. Rigg, while Dr. Ludwig von Pastor and the late Dr. Bannister helped me greatly in procuring access to the Vatican and other libraries. If the result of so many advantages helps any lover of sixteenth century a cappella music to a better understanding of the subject it will not have been in vain.

Palestrina was born in the first quarter of the sixteenth century. He contributed to the polyphony of the sixteenth century; a perfect means to the end in view which, in St. Augustine's words, was "prayer to God with song". The long connection of music with the Church bore fruit at last and lifted prayer higher than human language can soar; finding the right accents for pathos in supplication, jubilation in praise, sanctity in contemplation.
