Morris’s life-long fascination with Eastern Christianity informed his choice to translate select works of St. Ephrem, one of the noted Fathers of the Syrian tradition. Included in this English translation are St. Ephrem’s Thirteen Rhythms on the Nativity, The Pearl (also known as Seven Rhythms on the Faith), Eighty Rhythms upon the Faith, Against the Disputers, and Three Rhythms concerning the Faith. Translated with care from their original Syriac into English, these works were being made available to many in England for the first time. As a tribute to the Saint, they contain some of his most beloved works.
John Brande Morris (1812-1880) was part of the Oxford Movement among Anglican clerics in the nineteenth century. A one-time Fellow of Exeter College, Oxford, he left this post to become a Roman Catholic priest. He was a parish priest for the remainder of his career.
