<p>Keble was the son of the vicar of Colne. After a brilliant career at Oxford University, he took Holy Orders and became curate at East Leach and Burthorpe. In 1827, he published <em>The Christian Year: Thoughts in Verse for the Sundays and Holy Days throughout the Year</em>, which was an instant success. In 1831, Keble became a professor of poetry at Oxford. In 1833, he laid the foundation of the Oxford Movement by delivering his famous Assize Sermon. In
|
|
1835, he accepted the vicarage at Hursley, where he stayed the rest of his life.</p>
|
|
<p>Keble was a modest man, and probably thought less of his own work than did the least of his admirers. He once accompanied the vicar of a parish in southern England on his visit to the Sunday School. The superintendent asked Keble to say a few words to the children, who were already acquainted with his hymns, so that they might more easily remember them. Keble demurred, but when the superintendent persisted, said “May they
|
|
sing something?” When they finished, his face was beaming as he said:</p>
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p>My dear children, you sang most beautifully in tune; may your whole lives be equally in tune, and then you will sing with the angels in heaven.</p>
|
