<OPENER><SALUTE>Reverend Brethren,</SALUTE></OPENER>
<P>TO you al&s;o do I cheerfully ren|der an account of my labours, &s;ince at the reque&s;t, and with the good liking of &s;ome of you, I compo&s;ed &s;ome Hymns, (publi&s;hed heretofore) and &s;undry others now. Wherefore I intend no further Apology then what is tendred in the preceding Epi&s;tle to the Parliament, and if more be nece&s;&s;ary, I hope I may rea&s;onably expect it from you in behalf of the Work.</P>
<P>I have not much medled with the <HI>Lamentations</HI> (though a book Poeti|cal) in regard the like &s;ubject is &s;o fre|<GAP DESC="illegible" RESP="apex" EXTENT="1 letter">uent in the <HI>P&s;almes,</HI> neither with the Canticles (not onely becau&s;e they are done, <GAP DESC="illegible" RESP="apex" EXTENT="1 letter">oth in plaine way and paraphra&s;e, by o|ther

hands, but becau&s;e of the difficul|ty of the &s;en&s;e; I think be&s;t to glo&s;&s;e upon that Text of <HI>Cant. 5. 10.</HI> By the ex|pre&s;&s;ion of <HI>2 Cor. 5. ult.</HI> And of that fruit spoken of, <HI>Cant. 2. 3.</HI> I add this glo&s;&s;e.</P>
<P>The Word and Sacrament.</P>
<P>Not that I want occa&s;ion to &s;teak of <HI>His Odors &s;weet of &s;cent,</HI> or &s;ome &s;uch out of the letter of the Text, but for the occa&s;ion for which I cho&s;e it, as being virtually imply'd, and ap|ply'd fittingly.</P>
<P>Indeed I would gladly annex to the&s;e Hymns &s;ome &s;elect places, and whole P&s;almes touching the mo&s;t spiritual and concernable matters of prai&s;e and pub|lick wor&s;hip, Exhortation, and Con&s;ola|tion, that thereby I might again bring in tho&s;e frequent Metres which &s;ome of you &s;ay I have left out (to your lo&s;&s;e and mine own) in the la&s;t Edition, and which you do prefer (and I think ju&s;tly) to tho&s;e that are put in.</P>
<P>To what end therefore &s;hould I comply any further with the old, which, being alter'd no more then needs mu&s;t, would be like an old garment with a new pi<GAP DESC="illegible" RESP="apex" EXTENT="1 letter">ce, and would put the people to as much co&s;t

as a new Tran&s;lation, much neerer to the Text, much ea&s;ier to be &s;ung, and got without book. The be&s;t way, as I con|ceive, is to collect a Semicentury of choice Hymns (which out of my &s;tore I can ea&s;ily afford) and make no other addition to the la&s;t tran&s;lation then you &s;hall think nece&s;&s;ary. So &s;hall you finde (among the P&s;alms or Hymns) all the frequent Metres that are not har&s;h, the <HI>119.

<P><HI>Te Deum</HI> is an exqui&s;ite Hymn, harp|ing all along upon Scripture, and in my Tran&s;lation exemplified with Scripture|proofs, done at the reque&s;t of one of you, but there is no room for printing either it or any P&s;alm-Hymns, till the next im|pre&s;&s;ion. And that with your concurrence and the Company of Stationers, le&s;t any &s;hould &s;u&s;pect the prejudicing of their in|tere&s;t.
