6 January is the feast of the #Epiphany, so here is Vidimus Stellam, an early #17thCentury #motet for the day by William #Byrd, from #Gradualia, 1607.

Eleanor Cramer: #soprano
Christopher Goodwin: #lute
Alison Kinder: bass #viol
Tamsin Lewis: tenor viol

Vidimus stellam in Orientem, et venimus cum muneribus adorare Dominum.
We have seen a star in the East, and have come with gifts to adore the Lord.

I know that all beneath the moon decayes,
And what by mortalles in this world is brought,
In time’s great periods shall returne to nought;
That fairest states have fatall nights and dayes…

William Drummond of Hawthornden (1585–1649) was born #OTD, 13 Dec. The leading Scottish poet of the age, his preference for his Lothian home over the Court did not diminish his engagement with wider culture; Ben Johnson once walked all the way from London to converse with him
