Mr. MERRICKs learned and truly Poetical Verfion of the Pfalms would have been too prefumptuous an undertaking, if its aim had not been to improve that part of our Church Service which has long been the fubjecl of the moft fevere animadverfions. Although it has been printed nearly two years, the Editor was unwilling to offer it to the Public, till he had collected the fentiments of the Rulers of our Church, and of thofe friends whofe abilities are well known, and on whofe judgment he could fafely rely. He has the greateft pleafure to perceive that the principal objection to its admiffion into parifh churches appears to be the difficulty of adapting feveral of our beft old tunes to a metre differing from the ancient verfion. Some tunes have been varied in his mufical collection ,whence an opinion may be formed of farther improvements: and if this objection fhould be done away, the Editor will have reafon to entertain hopes that his undertaking may, at fome future period, obtain a proper fanction for Tobe had at BLANDS Mufic-T v Varehoufc, N45, I lolborn ;and of all Bookfellers in tcvn and country.
