CREDO
Have we lost Paradise, our high content And ageless ecstacy? What though the busy ages teem, Dreaming old dreams in sombre night, And aeons through strange races pass In coloured pagentry from star to star, And suns dissolve in symphonies Making new worlds as men ascend! Only I know that birth and death are dreams, And through the heart's November and the lonely graves Some instants hold you and your voice.
MARJORIE FFRANGCON-DAVIES
Lenzes Gebot, die süsse Noth Die legt es ihm in die Brust, Nun sang er wie er musst, Und wie er musst, so konnt er', Das merkt ich ganz besonders.

There was a good deal of misunderstanding of Ffrangcon-Davies's The Singing of the Future when it appeared in 1905; and in that misunderstanding, if my memory does not betray me, I had my small share.
Introduction, by Ernest Newman.
That the time has come for the publication of a revised and abridged edition of my Father's book, The Singing of the Future, I am convinced by the repeated inquiries received, not only in this country, but from America and many countries in Europe where David Ffrangcon-Davies is remembered and beloved.
Foreword, by Marjorie Ffrangcon-Davies.
David Thomas Davies was born at Bethesda, in Caernarvonshire, on December 11th, 1855.
'The soul which has seen most of truth shall come to the birth as a philosopher, or artist, or some musical and loving nature.'
Preface, by the late Sir Edward Elgar, Bart., Mus.Doc.
This book is meant, not only for singers, but for all who are interested and concerned in the subject of speech or song - preachers, readers, pleaders, lecturers, reciters (with or withot music) and actors - all of whom do their best work when they employ their best selves upon the best products of the best poets, dramatists and musicians.
