    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The eldest version of the Cecilia story is the &quot;Passio S. Caeciliae,&quot; extant mss of which date from the eighth century.  Its central meaning involves an ideal of perfection close to Augustine&#039;s teachings.  Chaucer translates the version of the story from the &quot;Legenda aurea&quot; up to about line 344, where he changes his source to the longer &quot;Passio&quot;--which, instead of translating, he abridges.  ]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Jacobus had emphasized supernatural power at the expense of human understanding and choice.  Chaucer goes even further than Jacobus in eliminating material from the &quot;Passio&quot; that affirmed the value of human nature and earthly experience.  The tale thus loses its Augustinian perspective and assumes an increasing theological pessimism.]]></dcterms:description>
