Excerpt from The Psalmody of the Church: Its Authors, Singers, and Uses In this case we offer no apology, because our unpretentious little book is of itself a proof that we have no nefarious design against the persecuted public.

We have long, vainly waited for some one to write a racy, readable book upon this extremely interesting and fascinating theme; and now - no, dear reader, the Daniel is not yet come to judgment, but we believe that when he does come, he will adopt some such plan as we have sketched in this little book.
