From the library of the famous East Hampton, Long Island Presbyterian minister, the Reverend Samuel Buell, signed twice by him in 1753. During the Revolution he was very active in supporting the American cause. He was a close friend of Samson Occom, a native American who was a member of the Mohegan nation, and he preached at Occom's ordination as a Presbyterian cleric. Both Buell and Occom were powerful voices in the teachings of the Great Awakening. While remembered as a friend of the native American community on Long Island, he was also a prolific slaveholder. Buell has signed "Saml Buells Book 1753" on the front endpaper and at the head of the title page. A printed label under his signature on the endpaper records his gift of the book: "[ N 2 ] AARON WOOLWORTH's EX DONO Rev. S. BUELL, D.D." Aaron Woolworth (1763-1821) was Buell's son-in-law, having married Buell's daughter, Mary Buell Woolworth (1768-1849), on August 27, 1788. Aaron Woolworth was also a Presbyterian minister. On the verso of the front cover is a later label with the name "James Brown Thornton" and the pencil date of 1848. An earlier ownership signature dated 1699 has been crossed out by a later owner of the book and is not legible.First published in 1669, this is the second edition. On the verso of the title page is the Imprimatur, October 12, 1668. The book is much more than a commentary on Psalm 130 and is rather a series of discourses. Owen was particularly moved by verse 4 of the Psalm: "But there is forgiveness with thee: that thou maist be feared". Pages 64 to 350 are devoted to this single verse.

A nice association with a man widely regarded as the greatest English poet of the First World War, and a scarce item of which not many copies can have been printed, and no other copy has been traced. 4pp, 8vo. Bifolium on laid paper. In fair condition, lightly aged, with slight creasing at head. Explanatory note on final page begins: 'The memorial to Wilfred Owen is cut on Portland stone by Michael Harvey from lettering drawn by Reynolds Stone, CBE, RDI. / The graves of Tom and Susan Owen, the poet's father and mother, and of his sister Mary are in the south-east corner of the churchyard. / Tea will be served by the ladies of the parish after the service at the old vicarage, now called The Glebe House, where Wilfred Owen lived from 20 October 1911 to 7 February 1913 while acting as lay assistant to the Rev. Herbert Wigan. A small display of books by and about Owen may be seen there.' The two central pages give the order of service, beginning with the text of Catherine Winkworth's translation of Rinkart's 'Now thank we all our God'. A list of the readings follows, with Owen's biographer Jon Stallworthy speaking about 'Wilfred Owen at Dunsden', and Ian Parsons about 'Wilfred Owen as Poet'. Letters by Owen to his mother ('The Sentry' and 'The Send-Off') are read by Stallworthy, the actress Jill Balcon, D. J. Enright and Peter Owen. The poets Ted Hughes, Geoffrey Hill and Robert Gittings read poems by Owen and extracts from letters. The memorial is dedicated by the Bishop of Oxford, and there is a 'Bidding Prayer' by Rev. Norman Print, Vicar of Dunsden.
