Excerpt from Sacred Poets The metrical Psalmody of John Huss and Martin Luther, in Germany, had been followed by the transla tion of Clement marot, in France. It was undertaken at the request, and made from the version, of the cele brated Vatable, professor of Hebrew in the University of Paris, one of the most learned men of the age, and the restorer of the study of Hebrew in France. The favourite of Francis the First and his Court, marot's Sainetes Cleansonettes, became universally popular, and were sung by the Monarch and his peers. Their publi cation was, however, attended with much inconvenience, and some danger to the poet. The Sorbonne discovered errors in the translation, and complained of them to the King 5 but Francis, who admired the poet, paid little attention to their remonstrances, and Marot, in some verses, alludes to the Offending the Sorbonne as the natural result of pleasing the King. The sale of the work was, however, forbidden, and he subsequently found it necessary to retreat to Geneva.
