@B21983 Handel was born German but came to England in 1713 at the age of 28. He devoted his life and genius to the service of that kingdom and therefore surely deserves to be recognized as British, no?

So much of Purcell's music is penitential and sorrowful (though not all of course; he was a great composer and expressed everything). Still I wonder, did he have a presentiment of his early death at 36? I welcome replies.

@JuS546 Amen to reconciliation. Two points, however 1) When St Francis lived the Church of England was still in communion with the Church of Rome, and the English church has never ceased to honor him. 2) The text is not actually by St Francis, but of early 20th century origin.
