When the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth in 1620, and founded the first permanent colony in New England, they brought with them Henry Ainsworth's version of the Psalms in prose and metre, with the printed tunes.-^ This version was used in the church at Plymouth until 1692. Elsewhere, the Puritan colonists of the Massachusetts Bay, coming over in 1629 and 1630, sang the words and tunes of Sternhold and Hopkins's Psalms, which for many years had been published with the ordinary editions of the Eng- lish Bible.2 1 The first edition of Ainsworth's version has the following title : — The Book of Fsalmes : Englished both in prose and metre. With anno- tations, opening the nvords and sentences, by conference nvith other scrip- tures. By H. A. [With the music] Amsterdam: Giles Thorp, i6iz. 348 pp. 40. (British Museum.) Reprinted in metre in 161 8 (Lenox), in metre in 1642 (Prince collection in Boston Public Library), in prose and metre in 1644 (British Museum, Lenox), in metre in 1644 (Trinity College at Cambridge), and probably later. 2 The Geneva Bible of 1569 was probably the first to have this version bound with it. The usual title is : — The Whole Booke of Psalmes .- collected into English meeter by T. Sternhold, J. Hopkins, and others . . . nvith apt notes to sing them ivithall. More than two hundred editions between the years 1569 and 1640 are described in the British Museum Catalogue, and it was printed and appears to have been in use as late as 1841. [V] Introduction The translation by Sternhold and Hopkins, however, was not acceptable to many of the nonconformists. Some of the extremists in England even called it " Hopkins his Jigges " and " Genevah Jiggs." Cotton Mather in his Magnalia sets forth the opinion held of it by the Puritans of the Bay Colony in the following words : — " Tho' they blessed God for the Religious Endeavours of them who translated the Psalms into the Meetre usually annex'd at the End of the Bible, yet they beheld in the Translation so many Detractions from, Additions to, and Variations of, not only the Text, but the very Sense of the Psalmist, that it was an Offence unto them." The desire for a translation which would express more exactly the meaning of the original Hebrew led to the undertaking of a new version, not long after the year 1636, in which " the chief Divines in the Country, took each of them a Portion to be Translated." Just what portions were done by each one of the '' thirty pious and learned Ministers" then in New England, or how many others aided in the work, we have no means to determine. It is related by John Josselyn,^ that when he visited Boston on July iith, 1638, he delivered to Mr. Cotton the Teacher of Boston church, " from Mr. Francis Quarles the poet, the Translation of the 16, 25, 51, 88, 113, and 137. Psalms into English Meeter, for his approbation." It is possible that some of these contributions of Mr. Quarles were incorporated in the new version. The principal part of the work, we are told, was com- mitted to Mr. Richard Mather, minister of the church in Dorchester, who probably wrote the preface also,^ and to Mr. Thomas Welde and Mr. John Eliot, associate minis- ters of the church in Roxbury. " These, like the rest," says Cotton Mather, "were of so different a Genius for 1 Account of Tixjo Voyages to Neiv England (London, 1674), pp. 19, 20. 2 A rough manuscript draft of the preface, in Richard Mather's handwriting, is among the Prince MSS. in the Boston Public Library. [vi] Introduction their Poetry, that Mr. Shepard of Cambridge, on the Occa- sion addressed them to this Purpose. " Tou Roxb'ry Poets ^ keep clear of the Crime , Of missing to give us ver^ good Rhime. And you i?/' Dorchester, •your Verses lengthen ^ But with the Texts own Words, you will them strengthen.'''' It is unnecessary to repeat here the criticisms of Professor Tyler and others on the " hopelessly unpoetical character" of this version. Dr. William Everett aptly remarks that the fault lay largely in the excess of reverence for the sub- ject ; and he calls attention to the fact that John Milton attempted to turn nine of the Psalms into EngHsh verse, adhering as closely as possible to the original, with a result as harsh and dry as anything in the Bay Psalm book.^ In the meantime a printing press had been brought over to Massachusetts, while the new Psalm Book was prepar- ing. It was mainly through the efforts of the Rev. Joseph or Josse Glover, formerly rector of Sutton, in Surrey, that this was accomplished. He raised funds in England and in Holland, contributed largely himself, procured the press, types, and paper, and engaged the printer, Stephen Daye, under contract dated June 7, 1638. Sailing with their respective families, and with three men servants to help the printer, the party arrived in New England, probably in September, 1638 ; excepting, however, Mr. Glover, who " fell sick of a feaver and dyed," either on the voyage or just before they started. In March, 1639, according to Winthrop, the printing house was begun at Cambridge, the first things printed being the Freeman's Oath^ probably on a single sheet, and an Almanack made for New England by Mr. William Peirce, mariner. Neither of these publications is known to be extant. 1 Memorial Exercises at Newton, Eliot Anni'versary, 1 646-1 896 (Newton, 1896), p. 75. [vii] Introduction The next thing printed was the Psalmes newly turned Into metre, which was finished at the press in 1640, in an edition of seventeen hundred copies. It thus " had the Honour," according to Thomas Prince, " of being the First Book Printed In North America." From a deposition made by Stephen Daye In 1655, In the suit brought by Glover's heirs against Henry Dunster, president of Harvard College, we learn that the cost of printing the seventeen hundred copies was ;^33, that one hundred and sixteen reams of paper were used, valued at ;^29, that the book was sold at twenty pence per copy, and that the total receipts from sales were estimated at £1^1 13^. 4^., leaving a profit of ^^79 13^. ^d. The new Psalm Book was adopted at once by nearly every congregation In the Colony of Massachusetts Bay, and for that reason It came to be known as the " Bay " Psalm Book. A revised and enlarged edition, under the title of The Psalms Hyjiins and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New Testament^ was printed at Cambridge In 165 1, In an edition of two thousand copies, and in this form it ran through many editions In New England, the latest being " The Twenty-seventh Edition," printed at Boston in 1762. The churches of Salem and Ipswich did not formally adopt the new Psalm Book until 1667, In which year the Salem church decided that " the Bay psalm book should be made use of together with Ainsworth's." In Plymouth Colony the use of Ainsworth was continued as before until 1692, when the church there also agreed "to sing the psalms now used In our neighbor churches In the Bay." Even In England, as Thomas Prince remarks, the book was " by some eminent Congregations prefer'd to all Others in their Publick Worship." Reprinted there first in 1647, and In the revised form In 1652, It ran through more than twenty English editions, the latest bearing the date of 1754. In Scotland, too, at a later period, the book [ viii ] .Introduction was used in the Presbyterian churches to some extent, half a dozen Scotch editions appearing between the years 1732 and 1759. These English and Scotch editions were usually bound with Bibles of octavo size, and in that form many of them were imported for use in New England. After being used for upwards of a century, and running through more than fifty editions, the Bay Psalm Book gave way to the newer versions of Tate and Brady and of Isaac Watts. Among others, the church in Dedham voted for the change in 1751 ; the New North Church in Boston, in 1755; the church in Ipswich, before 1757; the First Church in Roxbury, in 1758; and the First Church in Boston, in 1761. In 1755, the Rev. Thomas Prince, minister of the Old South Church in Boston, began a new revision of the Bay Psalm Book, which was finished by him and adopted by his congregation in 1757, the book being published in 1758, and in a second edition in 1773. But in 1786 the Old South Church followed in the way of the others, and gave up Mr. Prince's Revision for Watts's Psalms and Hymns. Ten copies of the first edition of the Bay Psalm Book are known to be extant. Five of these copies were at one time in the possession of Rev. Thomas Prince, as part of his " New England Library," and by him were bequeathed in 1758, with his other books, to the Old South Church in Boston, " to be kept and remain in their Public Library for ever." After remaining in the steeple chamber of the church for nearly one hundred years,^ three of these Psalm Books, between the years 1850 and i860, passed into the hands of Mr. Edward A. Crowninshield of Boston, Nathaniel B. Shurtleff, M.D., of Boston, and Mr. George Livermore of Cambridge. According to a memorandum made by Dr. Justin Winsor, in August, 1871, for knowl- 1 See Catalogue of the Library of Re-v. Thomas Prince (Boston, 1846), pp. 10, 19, 41 (2 copies), and 104, for brief entries of the five copies. [ix] Introduction edge of which I am indebted to Mr. Edmund M. Barton, librarian of the American Antiquarian Society at Worcester, the volumes were transferred to these gentlemen by the late Lt. Governor Samuel T. Armstrong, who had joint cus- tody of the Prince Library as one of the deacons of the Old South Church. " He surrendered the copies to these private hands in consideration of certain modern books given to said library, and of the modern binding bestowed on one or more of the copies now remaining in said Prince Library." The record of the ten copies is as follows : — (i) John Carter Brown Library, Providence, R. L Perfect, but with a small portion of the blank margin of the title-page and the lower blank margin of the leaf of errata cut out ; in the original old calf binding, re- backed. Size of leaf, six inches and seven-eighths by four inches and one-half. It was first owned by Richard Mather, one of the translators, whose autograph signature is in several places on the fly leaves and covers. From the Mather family it passed to the Rev. Thomas Prince, the bookplate of whose " New England Library " is pasted on the back of the title. By Prince it was bequeathed to the Old South Church, in his will dated October 2, 1758, "and from that time till i860, the book remained in the custody of the deacons and pastors of that church. In that year it was given by the church, through the proper agents, to the late Nathaniel Bradstreet ShurtlefF, M.D." On Dr. Shurtleft's death his library was offered for sale at auction by Leonard Sz Co., Boston, November 30 to December 2, 1875, but the Psalm Book was withdrawn because the deacons of the Old South Church obtained an injunction to prevent its sale. After a hearing before the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, the injunction was dissolved and the book adjudged to belong to Dr. Shurtleff's estate. It was therefore advertised again, in a four-page cir- cular, to be sold at auction, on October 12, 1876, by Joseph Leonard; and it was sold for ;^i025, to Mr. Sidney S. Introduction Rider of Providence, from whom it was bought by Mr. Caleb Fiske Harris. After the death of Mr. Harris, who was drowned in October, 1881, his collection was placed for sale in Mr. Rider's hands, and he sold the Psalm Books of 1640 and 1647 to the Brown Library, ;^I500 being given for them together with books worth considerable more.

It is one of the five copies bequeathed by Thomas Prince in 1758 to the Old South Church, from whose collection it passed by exchange, between the years 1850 and i860, to Mr. Edward A. Crowninshield, as related above. In the catalogue of Mr. Crowninshield's library, announced to be sold at auction by Leonard & Co., Boston, in November, 1859, ^^ book is described as " in the original old vellum binding." The whole library, however, was withdrawn and sold at private sale for ^10,000 to Mr. Henry Stevens, who took it to Lon- don, where the Psalm Book was offered to the British Museum for ^^150.. Its purchase not being approved, the book was withdrawn by Mr. Stevens, and after being rebound by F. Bedford in " dark brown crushed levant morocco," was sold in 1868 to Mr. George Brinley of Hartford, for 150 guineas. At the Brinley sale in March, 1879, it was bought for the late Mr. Cornelius Vander- bilt for $1200. The statements in the Memorial History of Boston^ vol. I (1880), and in the Catalogue of the John Carter Brown Library, part 2 (1882), that this copy was destroyed in a warehouse fire in New York, not long after its purchase by Mr. Vanderbilt, are both incorrect. Mrs. Vanderbilt writes that the book now belongs to her, and that it has never been injured in any fire. See Catalogue [xi] Introduction of the Valuable Private Library of the late Edward A.

(4) and (5) Prince Collection, Boston Public Library. Both slightly imperfect, and both in modern binding. These [xii] Introduction are the two remaining copies of the five originally given by- Thomas Prince to the Old South Church in Boston. In 1866 they were deposited with the rest of the collection in the Boston Public Library. They are described in the printed catalogue as follows : " There are in the Prince library two copies of this rare book, one of which (21. 15) is com- plete, with the exception of a slight mutilation of the ' Finis ' leaf, and the absence of the following leaf, which contains on the recto a list of ' Faults escaped in printing.'

On one of the fly leaves Mr. Thomas has written the following note : " After advertising for another copy of this book, and making enquiry in many places in New England, &c. I was not able to obtain or even to hear of another. This copy is therefore invaluable, and must be preserved with the greatest care. It is in the original binding. I. T. Sept. 28th, 1820."

(8) Lenox Collection, New York Public Library. Slightly imperfect, the upper corner of leaf G being torn off, taking away portions of three lines on both sides ; in modern binding. Size of leaf, seven inches and one-sixteenth by four inches and three-quarters. This copy turned up at the sale of the Fourth and concluding portion of the extensive and valuable collection of books^ formed by the late Mr. William Pickering., of Piccadilly., bookseller., at Sotheby & Wilkinson's auction rooms, London, on Jan. 12, 1855, in a lot which was catalogued as follows : — 43 2 Psalms. The Psalms of David, 1 640 — Another copy, 1639 — The Psalms of David, translated by Bishop King, russia, gilt edges y 1654 — "^^^ Psalms, by Barton, 1654 — Another copy, 1682 — The whole Book of Psalms, with the Singing Notes, 1688 — The Psalms of David, in Meeter, 1693 1 2mo. 8 vol. The lot was bought by Mr. Henry Stevens for £2 i8j. On examining the book, Mr. Stevens discovered that twelve leaves (sheets W, X, and Y) were lacking, having been left out by the original binder. These twelve leaves were finally obtained from Mr. Livermore's copy, as related above, and after being mended and re-margined, they were inserted in this copy ; the book was rebound in red morocco by F. Bed- ford, and was then sold by Mr. Stevens to Mr. Lenox for ;^8o. See Stevens, Recollections of Mr. fames Lenox (1886), pp. ^7-62, where, besides the error in stating the wrong num- ber of leaves found lacking in this copy, an error is also made in referring to the wrong number in the Pickering sale catalogue ("531 Psalmes. Other editions, 1630 to 1675, black letter, a parcel "), which was bought by " Holmes " for nineteen shillings. (9) Mr. E. Dwight Church, Brooklyn, N. Y. In the original old calf binding; lacking the first four and the [xiv] Introduction last three leaves, which were supplied later in facsimile. Size of leaf, seven inches (nearly) by four inches and five- eighths. Accompanying the book is a manuscript note of which the following is an extract : " It belonged to the Shuttleworth family, & is now handed to my daughter Sophia S. Simpson, to be used at her own discretion, by her beloved mother. Sarah Shuttleworth, 1844." About the year 1872 it was bought by the late T. O. H. P. Burnham, of the " Antique Bookstore " in Boston, not knowing at the time exactly what it was. Years afterwards, on com- parison by Mr. R. C. Lichtenstein with the 1640 edition in the Public Library, it was found to be a genuine copy of that edition. In August, 1892, it was sold to the late Bishop John F. Hurst, of Washington, D. C, and in February, 1903, shortly before his death, it was bought by Messrs. Dodd, Mead & Co., from whom it passed to the present owner. (10) Bodleian Library, Oxford. " The copy in the Bodleian is perfect. It formerly belonged to Bishop Tanner." — Cotton's Editions of the Bible (1852), p. 177. Bishop Tanner died December 14, 1735 ; and by his will, dated November 22, 1733, he bequeathed his manuscripts and books to the Bodleian. " Unfortunately, when Tanner was removing his books from Norwich to Oxford, in De- cember, 1 73 1, by some accident in their transit (which was made by river) they fell into the water, and were submerged for twenty hours. The effects of this soaking are only too evident upon very many of them. The whole of the printed books were uniformly bound in dark green calf, apparently about fifty years ago ; the binder's work was well done, but unhappily all the fly-leaves, many of which would doubtless have afforded something of interest, with regard to the books and their former possessors, were re- moved." — Macray's Annals of the Bodleian Library (lS6S)^ pp. 155—156. See the Caxton Celebration Catalogue (1877), p. 165; Stevens's Bibles in the Caxton Exhibition (1878), p. 117. [XV] - Introduction In October, i860, It was announced in the Historical Magazine that C. B. Richardson & Co. " have nearly ready 2i fac'simile reprint " of the Bay Psalm Book, limited to fifty copies ; and in the November number it was stated that the whole edition had been taken up by subscribers. The book appeared fifteen months later, with title as below, and with a preface by Dr. ShurtlefF, dated January, 1862, in which we are informed that all the peculiarities of the original, in- cluding broken type, inverted letters, and other errors, had been reproduced exactly by the modern compositor : A Literal Reprint of the Bay Psalm Book Being the Earliest New England Version of the Psalms and the First Book Printed in America (Fifty Copies for Subscribers) Cambridge Printed [at the Riverside Press] for Charles B. Richardson New York 1862 vii pp., psalms (148) leaves, list of sub- scribers (2) pp. 8°. Besides the fifty copies for subscribers, Mr. Livermore had fifteen extra copies printed on thick paper for pres- entation, besides five copies on India paper, and one copy on vellum. The vellum copy was retained by Mr. Liver- more, at whose sale in 1894 it brought $']^. In issuing the present reproduction, which is the first one ever made in exact facsimile, the publishers have used the copy belonging to Mr. Church, and also the copy in the Lenox Branch of the New York Public Library. In com- paring these two copies of the original edition side by side, it was found that the printed matter on every page of the Lenox copy measured a little more each way than in the Church copy, the variation being nearly one eighth of an inch. The difference in size, however, was not typographical, but was caused merely by the shrinkage of the paper, which in one copy had been more exposed to the air than in the other, and was not so smooth and flat. The peculiarity re- ferred to will be noticed in comparing the first three leaves of the preface, reproduced from the Lenox copy in the [xvi] Introduction present facsimile, with the three leaves following, repro- duced from the Church copy. In each case the facsimiles are the exact size of the originals. It is an interesting fact to know that shrinkage of paper can make such a difference in the measurement of the printed page in different copies of the same book. WiLBERFORCE EaMES.
