Yet who is this ancient, who with flowing pen, full of holy fire, the wond'ring temple charms' . , . Telemann, none but thou, celestial Music's sire ... (p. w. ZACHARIAE, 1754) A somewhat extravagant image maybe, but infinitely preferable to the neglect which Telemann has suffered for much of the time since his death in 1767.
