Lasst uns erfreuen herzlich sehr.[ Easter .] This is in the Catholische Kirchen-Gesäng, printed by Brachel at Cologne in 1625 [B. M.], p. 232, and apparently in the ed. of 1623 (see Bäumker, i., No. 280). It is in Hommel's Geistl. Volkslieder ,1864, No. 92; H. Bone's Cantate, ed. 1879, No. 202. Translated as:—
1. Rejoice all ye that sorrowed sore, by J. O'Connor, in the Arundel Hymns, 1902, No. i 9.
In the St. Gall Gesang-Buch (B. C), 1863, No. 55, it is altered, and begins "Frohlocke aller Engel Heer," and this form is translated as:—
2. Sing to the Lord, ye angels high, by Miss Huppus, in E. Paxton Hood's Children's Choir, 1870.
