The four canticles of Lukes birth storythe Magnificat, Benedictus, Gloria in excelsis, and Nunc dimittisare taken to be integral components of the narrative and a sustained lyrical prelude to the authors two-volume historical work. Each composition is analyzed in three steps: proximate context; text; and macrocontext, the last displaying, in each case, a graded contribution to the cumulative preview of Lukes overall argument that the songs constitute. The summary impression made by this argument is of the authors decisive role in the creation of these passages, of whichsave, perhaps, for the Benedictushis is the originating hand.
