Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an early 17th-century poetic translation of the Book of Psalms, as part of an early modern period push to make the Bible more accessible to the populace. The Psalms are biblical songs or poems that were collected together over a long period of time, initially emerging from the religious practices of the ancient Israelites. The Psalms have a range of purposes and tones, from laments to hymns of praise, and cover topics such as wisdom, faith, and justice. Some of the most notable Psalms are the 23rd, âThe Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want,â and the 137th, in which the psalmist expresses the longing of the Hebrews in exile for their homeland. This volume, the work of the English poet and clergyman Henry Ainsworth, has been influential in the development of the English language, playing a significant role in shaping the vocabulary and phrasing of later poets and writers.
