Dear List
While reading Peter Brown's "Augustine of Hippo" I came across this =
quote from Augustine's "Ennarrationes in Psalmos". It is on page 135 of =
Brown's book and is part, I believe, of Augustine's commentary on Psalm =
18.
"We should understand what this Psalm means. Sing it with human reason, =
not like the birds. Thrushes, parrots, ravens, magpies and the like are =
often taught to say what they do not understand."
For what it is worth
