BUT I have one thing to clear which perhaps will be objected the often Repetitions which are marked with ii which cannot be avoided since the parts cannot but be Ecchoing their sense and gracing the Musick to make an harmony in both for which he that understands any thing thereof will be my Advocate so that this small Collection may inform the Ignorant reform the Obstinate conform the Moderate and confirm all to Communicate in the Church of God That all Christians may so doe is the hearty desire and daily prayer of the meanest of the Sons of the Church J. C. See here the sacred Harp with well-tun'd string Skilfully toucht by a most pious King Of whose great Actions after Gods own heart This is recorded too He play'd his Part. To the Reverend WALTER JONES Doctor in Divinity AND Sub-Dean of his Majesties Chappel-Royal c. SIR VNder your able Patronage I have presumed to shelter this my weak endeavor which if for no other reason than the wel-meaning devotion therof I was sure would not be unacceptable or troublesome to you Be pleased therefore to intermit awhile those Seraphical Raptures in the excellency whereof and your thereto tuned Piety you are so famously happy And vouchsafe an eare to the mean addresse of these Rudiments as it were of Church Musick which like other perfections hath suffer'd meerly through the peoples ignorance To you therefore more especially doe I dedicate this Essay whose alone compeâent Skill and judgement in the highest mysteries of this Divine Science if it shall please you to descend and deign a favourable approbation thereunto cannot but coÌmand reception from others since my knowledge at Oxford improved further at London of your Eminency this way cannot so far disoblige the world as not to believe you have the supreme Mastery in religious Musick by which as you charm the Soul and all its affections no doubt you can prevail upon and perswade publick acceptance I submit this piece in this howsoever rude manner to your judgement having attempted I hope something of tendency to the Churches peace and harmony whereof though I am a small and an unworthy Member yet a Mite even from such is justly exspected For higher works God hath fitted and prepared your most Artfull Hand and hath placed you in an Orb from whence your Melody as of the Spheres of holiness and constant goodness in and for the Church is universally heard with joy and delight In which happiness God Almighty long continue you here and late translate you to the Angelical Choire so prayes Reverend Sir Your most devoted and obedient Servant JAMES CLIFFORD To the READER IT was the glory and hitherto happiness of Rhetorick alone of all other Sciences to fit and adapt it self to every capacity and understanding and therefore it hath been said to have something more of Divinity in it than the rest and we have a Proverb of remark The plainer the better Considering this and of how near a relation Musick is to Rhetorick yea more ravishingly vocall and moving the spirit beyond the others most violent efforts and how the Church of God in which Musick hath been constantly used throughout all the various forms thereof both Jewish and Christian whatever the sceptick Separatist or any novel Schismatick shall in vain and falslly gainsay though I will not make it my task or lose so much labour as to goe about to refute them hath suffered through the unintelligency and ignorance thereof I thought it a duty worthy the zeal of a Christian to remove this prejudice under and by which the Church hath so long without a proportionable remedy been grieved and afflicted For it is to be presumed that the most morose and quarrelsome disapprovers of this Musick in our solemn Assemblies object neither against the harmony it self for there is no peevish nor discontented spirit whatsoever which it will not appease and allay and that it doth naturally nor for the matter for that is alwaies Scripture or deduced and taken thence which they will by no means reject if they knew it to be such It remains therefore that it is want of information and direction for while the Choire sings it seems to them they say a kind of service in an unknown Tongue not one in a hundred able to bear a part or understand what is sung I have therefore in hopes to reâress this evil of ignorance and to âring all to the knowledge of this Musical piety whose comforts and âelights when they have once throâowly tasted I doe not doubt but my âabour will be thank-worthy printed âll the Anthems usually sung in any of our Cathedrals verbatim with the ingeminations and doubles thereof and the pauses and rests of the same that the people may follow the Choire in their Devotions without any loss or mistake and be encouraged to learn to assist and consort in the same melody To which I shall use this only motive that since it will be all and our sole employment in Heaven it will be wretchless and unexcusable neglect not to mind it here on earth I might say something to commend these Heavenly Anthems but they are above humane praise and direct us to the chiefest of all praises Gods glory and his Words and Works magnifie themselves and their blessed Author from whom they first camâ though written by men inspired anâ to whom they must return So Reader I will not further stay thee from the contemplation thereof but refeâ thee to the heavenly satisfaction thoâ shalt find therein Vale. ârief DIRECTIONS for the understanding of that part of the Divince Service performed with the Organ in S.
