Now in the press, and will be published and ready for sale
on Thursday next, by the printers hereof, (price one
shilling)
Plain Reasons, why neither Dr. Watts' imitations of the
Psalms, nor his other poems, nor any other human
composition, ought to be used in the praises of the Great
God our Saviour, --but, that a metre version of the book of
Psalms, examined, with wise and critical care, by pious and
learned Divines, and found by them to be as near the Hebrew
metre psalms, as the idiom of the English language would
admit, ought to be used.
With a short address to ministers and heads of families,
concerning family government.
