we_o take_v in_o plainness_n and_o then_o all_o art_n and_o industry_n be_v little_a enough_o to_o shun_v a_o harsh_a translation_n because_o as_o ill_a cook_n spoils_v good_a meat_n and_o make_v man_n loathe_v so_o ill_a psalmodie_n like_o the_o looseness_n of_o ely_n son_n make_v man_n abhor_v the_o offering_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o recover_v who_o appetite_n to_o this_o ordinance_n there_o have_v need_n to_o be_v a_o exquisite_a composure_n now_o to_o give_v the_o reader_n some_o account_n of_o the_o particular_n under_o publication_n i_o desire_v that_o he_o may_v understand_v i._n that_o i_o do_v not_o magnify_v myself_o but_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o another_o case_n i_o magnify_v my_o office_n so_o say_v i_o in_o this_o i_o magnify_v god_n ordinance_n many_o ravish_a expression_n we_o have_v hear_v in_o prayer_n though_o not_o altogether_o compose_v out_o of_o scripture_n how_o much_o more_o may_v we_o be_v stir_v with_o psalm-composure_n out_o of_o scripture_n if_o it_o be_v indeed_o exact_o do_v as_o to_o the_o worthiness_n of_o this_o work_n i_o say_v in_o relation_n to_o man_n that_o it_o be_v not_o all_o my_o own_o and_o in_o reference_n to_o god_n i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o one_o jot_n my_o own_o except_o the_o errata_fw-la and_o true_o they_o be_v not_o all_o my_o own_o neither_o ii_o much_o less_o do_v i_o endeavour_v to_o cast_v aspersion_n upon_o any_o or_o to_o triumph_v in_o the_o ruin_n of_o a_o old_a psalm-book_n which_o as_o in_o many_o thing_n it_o may_v easy_o be_v mend_v so_o in_o some_o respect_n it_o be_v hear_v to_o be_v excel_v nor_o in_o all_o defect_n be_v easy_o redress_v wherefore_o i_o have_v mention_v the_o fault_n but_o spare_o as_o may_v appear_v by_o these_o particular_n 1._o there_o be_v many_o unseemly_a

but_o instance_v in_o one_o or_o two_o example_n for_o the_o seven_o head_n whereof_o be_v many_o hundred_o be_v it_o not_o necessary_a to_o compare_v they_o with_o the_o text_n still_o and_o so_o to_o set_v down_o both_o which_o be_v too_o troublesome_a and_o tedious_a for_o omission_n addition_n and_o mistake_n be_v not_o easy_o judge_v of_o but_o by_o they_o that_o know_v the_o text_n very_o well_o 5._o i_o hint_v not_o how_o many_o fault_n may_v oft_o be_v spy_v out_o of_o one_o example_n let_v i_o give_v a_o short_a one_o psal._n 107.27_o or_o have_v of_o sense_n no_o feel_v first_o
