Abstract: | The nearest approach among us to an ancient Greek drama is such a service of sacred song as Sabbath Schools and Bands of Hope sometimes give us. The resemblance would be almost complete if, instead of one reader of the narrative, we had three, four, or five actors reciting in theatrical style. The choir takes the place of the ancient chorus, who, with their choral hymn in strophes, antistrophes, and epodes, enlivened the narrative, and gave a musical expression to the devout ideas which it suggested. |
