Excerpt from A Handbook of Church Music: A Practical Guide for All Those Having the Charge of Schools and Choirs, and Others Who Desire to Restore Plainsong to Its Proper Place in the Services of the Church Sacred music should possess in the highest degree the qualities proper to the Liturgy, and precisely sanctity and goodness of form, from which its' other character of universality spontaneously springs. It must be holy it must be true art. These qualities are to be found in the highest degree in the Gregorian Chant, which is, consequently, the Chant proper to the Roman Church, the only Chant she has inherited from the ancient Fathers, which she has jealously guarded for centuries in her liturgical Codices, which she directly proposes to the faithful as her own, which she prescribes exclusively for some parts of' the Liturgy, and which the most recent studies have so happily restored to their integrity and purity.
