	Chorale Melody - Das Nunc dimittis
		The Nunc dimittis or Canticum Simeonis is one of the three Psalm-like verses derived from the New Testament.
		There are many compositions with the title Nunc dimittis mainly from England and some from Italy and a few other European countries, but, as far as we know, they use Latin texts or the language of the country in which they were composed.
		One of the pieces in the group, the German Nunc dimittis SWV 352a, bears a dedication to Christoph Cornet, ‘ever to serve him with greatest affection’; Cornet, who died of the plague shortly before August 2, 1635, had no doubt commissioned the work as his funeral music.

		The term Nunc dimittis is from the initial words of the Song of Simeon in Latin, which mean "now let depart." The canticle is identified as the canticle for Evening Office by the Apostolic Constitutions of the late fourth century.
		The day came to be known as "Candlemas." The Nunc dimittis became the canticle for use at Compline in the west.
		At the Burial of the Dead, the Nunc dimittis may be used as an anthem as the body is borne from the church after the commendation.

	Church music - Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis CDs
		CDs of mag and nuncs are surprisingly popular, whether you run a choir and want to hear some possible extension to your repertoire or simply enjoy listening to these mini-masterpieces.
		One of the great thing about the paired Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis is the way the first can be so dramatic and the second so subtle and haunting.
		If you enjoy those miniature masterpieces, the settings of the Evening canticles, the Magnificat and the Nunc Dimittis, this is an excellent CD to have at the core of your collection with a good set of the best Mag and Nuncs around (even better, also get the companion My Spirit Hath Rejoiced).

	Life of Jefferson: 39. Nunc Dimittis, Domine
		To a member of his family who remarked that he was better and that the Doctor thought so, he listened with evident impatience and said, "Do not imagine for a moment that I feel the smallest solicitude as to the result." He then calmly gave directions for his funeral, forbidding all pomp and parade.
		All that was heard from him afterwards was a hurried repetition in indistinct and scarcely audible accents of his favorite ejaculation, Nunc Dimittis, Domine -- Nunc Dimittis, Domine.
		Was not the hand of God most affectingly displayed in this event as if to add another to the multiplied proofs of His special superintendence over this happy country?
