Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hymns, Partly Collected, and Partly Original, Designed as a Supplement to Dr. Watts' Psalms and Hymns Variety; of hymns on particular teats-eon specific subjects - and on public occasions, than has hitherto been attempted. This 1s the first use of a supplement. 4. My reason for arranging the hymns under the title of their respective authora, rather than according to the subject, Was that every man has his peculiar style of qqmpositionf - Tand I meant to present to the public, in one volume, the beauties and uses of many. In the prosecution of my plan, it has happened to me, as it must to, all finite beings, that I have partly suc cqbdedr' and partly failed. After having acted upon the principle which I had pro posed to myself, I discovered that I had overlooked certain beautiful eeusions, which I could, not consent to omit; and these' are superadded under the title of additional, from the various authors who have been ex amined, the volume having been partly printed oe, I could not do otherwise than thus class them, although it destroyed the original arrangement in part, without can celling the whole which had been thus com pleted-fa measure which must have ex posed me to an enormous-and, I think, an unnecessary expense.
