Excerpt from The College Year: Vesper Addresses in Wellesley College Chapel
These Vesper addresses are selected from those made in recent years in Wellesley College Chapel at the fortnightly service when the music carried on and completed the theme. They are arranged in sequence from the beginning to the end of the year, from Flower Sunday to Baccalaureate Vespers; but it will be understood they were not made consecutively in any one year, as the multiplication of Christmas addresses will testify.
The Office of Music sets forth the ideals sought for. There is often some indication of the anthems the choir sang or of the organ music. The spoken word was brief, only enough to sound a keynote. In publishing it, I hope that it may recall to some of my hearers something of the quiet and peace of those evening hours.
