- ordered arrangement
Meaning
Apollo’s musical-cosmic action moves into a Dorian ordering (XXXIV.18). The noun identifies an arrangement within the hymn’s musical comparison, not merely decorative order. Its force should be read with the named musical positions and seasons rather than an assumed modern scale.
