Item description from seller

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 228pp including: An Alphabetical Table. A New Version of the Psalms of David Fitted to the Tunes Used in Churches, printed for the Company of Stationers [1825]. The "A New Version of the Psalms of David Fitted to the Tunes Used in Churches" is a significant religious work published in 1825. Written by Nicholas Brady, an English clergyman who served as Chaplain in Ordinary to King William III and Queen Mary, and Nahum Tate, an Anglo-Irish poet, hymnist, and lyricist, who became Poet Laureate in 1692. The book is notable for its adaptation of the Psalms to church tunes, making them more accessible for worship. It is beautifully bound in full brown calf leather, reflecting its historical and cultural significance in the context of church music. This work is comprised of the new edition of the popular religious psalms of David, intended to be fitted to the tunes used in churches. Named after King David, there are seventy-three psalms of David, including the most well-known 'The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.'. With a selection of hymns and an alphabetic table of psalms to the rear of the work. Bound in full brown calf leather with blind stamped title to spine. Five raised bands to spine. Minor loss to the head of the spine with the odd small mark to the boards. Boards have light rubbing, marks and fading to the extremities. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright with the odd small spot or handling mark and some light age toning. A contemporary ink inscription to the pastedown, dated 1832. Very Good condition. This book is a significant contribution to the liturgical music of the time. It is a valuable resource for those looking to explore the spiritual and musical heritage of the church.
