4. T,here is, in our opinion, too much novel singing in some of our churches,alfect4lg mpre the animal, ihan the spiritual part of man; and, in aUprobability,there are more Wltruths uttered in the sight of heaven, at least by the uncollvomOO. in singing those ditties. than in any other way. The object of this worki8,; 19 bring back the_ tide of singing into its pmper channel.
5. One of the principal objects in t.his work has been, to adapt the spirit of thehymn to that of the tune, so that they beat in unison with each otheT; for, it isentfrely inGonsistent with nature, to ei~ber sing a cheerful subject to a melancholyair,. or a melancholy Bubje,ct to a cheerful air; it would be' like mourning atthanksgivings, and rejoicing at fWlerals. Here, the tune and subject being atvariance, the music must be either without i.mpression, or oppose its designed end.Bulo when music an<1 subject egree, they mutually ataist each other, and fill uswith lU'dor, solemnity, and delight, while engaged in the wOl'llhip of OUI Re-deemer·
iv PREFACE.
GENERAL REMARKS.
A proper acrent is very ornamental in singing, either by note or word, andmould be carefully attenued to; if the poetry is good, anu the music well auapted, accenteu syllables will always fall on the accented part!< of the measure. Forinslnnce, if the poetry begins with a trochee, the hand should fall on the first note;if with an iambus, it should rise. Some authors are opposed to two accents,when a measure is diviued into two pnrts-but, in that case, I woulu ask, what isto be done with a sponuee, where both words or syllables are accented 1 But, tobe short, I woulu remark, that where it so happens, that an aecentOO word fallgon the nnaccenteu part of the measure, language must predominate. A genteelpronunciation is another excellence that shoulu be particularly inculcateu; many,who are otherwise excellent singers, obscure the ideas they uller in melouy, bypronouncing ungrnmm~tical1y : words terminating in ly, ny, 1'1/, &c., are apt to bepronounced as thongh they formed a separate word, w),ich not only destroys th~
beauty of music, but the ""nse of poetry; the best mle, therefore, that can be given,is, to pronounce accoruing to the proper mode of speaking, so that what we singmay be understood.
Youngsters shoulu not be forgetful of the importance of the calling in whichthey are engaged, but remember that a becAlming seriousness shoulu at all time&prevail, while using sacred words; our thoughts ought nlways to corresponu withthe music anu subject. H ow delightful to beholu n choir of singers, courtingthat pleasing solemnity that Ehoulu attend the sacrOO worohip of Deity.
Young singers should be very industrious in acquiring a gTaceful manner ofbeating time, and should be careful not to contract any disagreeable hnbits, asthey are haru to overcome; nil uistortions of the limbs ~nd features, while singing, is very unbecoming, an(1 should be carefully avoiueU. Scholars shoulil observe strict decomm in time of school; nothing is more uisgusting, in singers,than nffecteu quirks and 03tcntatious pamde, cnueavoring to overpower othervoices hy the strength of their own, or officiously assisting others, while theirsis silent; on the other h~nd, not.hing is more praiseworthy, in a choir of singeu,than a becoming solemnity, which shoulu accompany an exercise so near akin,which will, through all etcrnity, engage the attention of those who walk "inthe climes 01 bliss."
Teachers should be part.icular to inculcate soft singing; a person who practicessoft singing, will retain the p~wer of hearing, anu confonning to other voices,and may renuily become l1laster of such gestures on<1 expressions, as reason anilpropriety uic.ulc. Soft Einging is, in fact, the best expedient for refining the cor,an,l improving the voice. A good voice may be injureil by too loud singing.Too long singing, at one time, injures the lungs. A colu or cough, all kinds ofspirituous liquors, long Iii sting, &c., are ucotructive to the voice of one who i.much in the practice of singing. A frequent use of spirituous liquors, will speedily ruin the best voice.
Flat keyed tunes shoulu he >Ung' sofler thlll1 sharp keyeu ones, and may heproportioned with a lighter b"s~; but, for sharp keyed tunes, let the bass be fulllUld strong.
All solos shoulu be sung softer than thc ports when moving together. Thehigh noles, quick notcs, "nu slurred notes of each part, shoulu be sung softer thanthe low, long, onu single I"otes. Lct the bass be sung full and bolu, the tenor,regular anu distinct, anu the treble, soft anil uelicate.
In singing hy nol<', great pains shoulu be talten to sound the notes round anilllIlloOth, nlways t:lking care to preserve a proper accent, which is the life anubeauty of music. Perhaps on imitation of the piano forte, would be equal to anyother specimen that coulu bc given for the proper sound of a note, the key of

In fuging music, !he part tha,t leads should be sung soft, gradually increasing as~ rest of the paTts fall in. To sing SQlnetimes loud, and at others soft, as theembmenls require, is ,ope of the principal beautie; in singing; by these m~ans,

While!be voice is very son, the sentiments expressed are wmpt in deep shade, and onlyieen at a distance, but a.s the music increases in sound, the sentinlcnts are seen~ from ihe shade, iuld advancing into a glare of light.

76 HYMN....:...continued.
• Whilst the annual frosts are croppingLeaves and tendrils from the trees,
So, our friends are early droppingWeare I ike to one I)f thp,se.
Hollow winds about me Toaring,Noisy waters round me rise:
Whilst I sit my fate deploring,Tears fast streaming from my eyes.
• What to me are autumn's treasures,Since I knoW' no earthly joy,
Long I've lost all YOllthful pleasures;Time must youth and health destroy.
Pleasure once I fondly courted,Shared each bliss that yl)uth bestows;
- Bu t to see whero t!wl1ce I sported,Now e:nbi~teis all my woes.
t> Death destroys my future prospects,Tears my earthly joys away;
Friends and children, 0 how prE}cious!Torn by death's cold hands away! /
Fast my sun of life declining;Soon 'twj1' sP,t in dismal night;
But my hopes, pure and refining,Rest in future life-and light.
G Cease this fearing, trembling, sighing,Death will break the sullen gloom,
And my spirit, tluttering, tlying,Must be borne beyond the tomb
Thp,re I'll sep, my blessed Saviour,There I'll cease from all my toils,
There I'll drink and feast foreverOn that fair and happy soil.
