Instead, thegentle, pensive Eusebius once again enters. Hehas a new note in his song, a turn of quaintassurance. See how the melody now descends,without the old questioning:. Again the strange retort in timid unison. Then the chorus enter with firm, conclusive strain, still strongly charged with a pious spirit. At the end of one of the final refrains of the chorale, before we have discovered it, an old figure has stolen in ; the primeval legend of horns is sounding its perennial phrase, as though it had not been silent all along. And now another old memory rises from the musing of the earliest beginning: 306 SYMPHONIES AND THEIR MEANING Woodwind (doubled above and below). —J. ^ 3t & Sempre crescendo. a -y p r te 52. <g. ^ :& 1-—r ^3frf: ¥=£- fff -I ^ ftp ^-f-I I I strings. Somehow it does not fit ill with the Eusebiusmelody. And now see how, while this sings inthree-measured rhythm, the legend sounds inthe brass in perfect accord of independentrhythm, the old one of four paces. While theformer vanishes, the latter continues, with slightintervals, until the end, and, all in unconsciousagreement, the Eusebius melody floats above intrium
