Lyra Germanica: The Christian Year
by Catherine Winkworth
Summary
Winkworth's translations are "invariably faithful, and
for the most part both terse and delicate;" (Martineau) "the most
widely used of any from that language, and have had more to do with the
modern revival of the English use of German hymns than the versions
of any other writer." [Julian's Dictionary of Hymnology]
