Psalterium Americanum. The Book of Psalms, in a translation exactly conformed unto the original; but all in blank verse. Fitted unto the tunes commonly used in our churches. Which pure offering is accompanied with illustrations, digging for hidden treasures in it; and rules to employ it upon the glorious and various intentions of it. Whereunto are added, some other portions of the sacred Scripture, to enrich the cantional.
