Excerpt from A Selection From Tate and Bradys Version of the Psalms: With Hymns by Various Authors, for the Use of the Church in Brattle-Square

The editions of the Brattle Street Collection being exhausted, a Committee was appointed, at the annual meeting last year, to de vise means for obtaining a supply. It was proposed by some, to adopt, in place of the book hitherto used by the Society, one of the excellent Selections lately published, which comprehends most of the Hymns in our Second Part, with several of' those in the First Part, and of Tate and Brady's Psalms. But it was found to accord better with the wishes of the Society to retain, in its existing shape, that part of the Collection, which is a memorial to them of their last deceased pastor. And it was further thought, that there was good ground for the disposition of Christians, to have the Psalms, the productions of holy men of old, appear as such, distinguished from other devotional poetry, and be used in public worship in a version as close as good taste allows.
