Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boston Sacred Harmony, or New England Collection of Church Music: Containing New, Original, and Select Hymn Tunes, Anthems, Motetts, Sentences, Services, Chants, Etc. Etc Hence arise the three principal divisions of elementary science. As sounds may be long or short, there must be rhythm or measure, to regulate their length. Everything relating to what we call Time in music, belongs to rhythm. As sounds may be high or low, hence comes ME lody, to direct how high, and how low the sounds shall be, and what shall be the relations of the different sounds. As sounds also may be soft or loud, there is dynamics, or expression, which regulates the power of the sound, and musical expression in general.
