WILLIAM S. SHAW, £lcri of til Dijtria '/ Majjfacbufctt),

PREFACE,

THE publimer of this book having been frequently employed in the fale of Singing-Books for fev- eral years part, is led to conclude that he has fome knowledge of that kind of Pfalm tunes which are ufed in the various parts of New-England, where he has been conyerfant with thofe who teach vocal Mufic, and lead in public worshipping aiTemblies ; and although he has not inferted all the Pfalm tunes made ufe of, yet he flatters himfelf he has a fufficient number for any fociety to perform, and more than is generally learned by any one choir of Singers. He has endeavoured to publifh fuch as are now in ufe in many parifhes, to- gether with fuch others as he thinks will meet the approbation of a majority (not to fay all) the teachers- arid chorifters into whofe hands it may come. He has aimed to fupply a fufficient number for the feveral metres of the Pfalms and Hymns in Dr. Watts, Tate and Brady, and Dr. Belknap's Verfions, in both the cheerful and plaintive keys. Many of the following pieces he has heard performed with fatisfaction and applaufe. Some others have been highly approved of, and recommended by judges of mufic on whom he can rely. Thofe which are new, he trufts will meet the approbation of thofe who examine and perform them with care and candor ; and he earneftly recommends it to the confideration of thofe who fuperin- tend Singing-Schools, in New-England, to practife fuch tunes in the Schools as will be fuitable for public worfhip, having regard to the different metres, keys, &c.

With regard to the Rules, he has endeavoured to be fhort ; not thinking it neceflary to publifh. any con- fiderable explanation, as he apprehends very few inftances occur where any perfon undertakes to learn with- out an inftructor ; and thofe who undertake to teach Singing-Schools, are or ought to be learned before- hand ; and the MalTachufetts Compiler, or fome other treatife calculated for the purpofe, will of courfe be ftudied by them. The following Rules he confiders fufficient for pracYifing plain Pfalmody.

The firft Edition met with a rapid fale, and encourages him to publifh this fecond, which he trufts is not inferior in point of merit ; and hopes it will meet the general approbation of the Public. Attleborough^ June 20, 18 12.
