St. Theodulph of Orleans

J. M. Neale's note says the Palm Sunday processional hymn 'Gloria, laus, et honor' is said to have been composed by S. Theodulph at Metz, or at Angers according to others, while he was imprisoned on a false accusation, and sung by him from his dungeon window as the Emperor Louis and his Court went to the Cathedral. The good Bishop was then set free. Neale gives no dates for him.

Neale records that the original had ten stanzas besides the Chorus, that the Roman Missal keeps only the first five, and that he has added the sixth and tenth. This file gives that single translation (1867), made with a friend's help.
