Note 50 — Chapter IX · PREACHING
Reading edition
In Canticum Beatæ Virginis Mariæ, placed by Mabillon among the sermons attributed to St. Bernard doubtfully or erroneously (PL 184: 1121).
Imitative translation is practically precluded by the intractable rhythm of the familiar English “My soul doth magnify the Lord.”
For an exposition of this text different even in the handling of iteration see Hugh of St. Victor in PL 175: 416.
