HYMN
hymns, published in 1853, nor is it in his Christian Psalmist, published in 1825.
clviii.—The last four out of five stanzas. (The hymn is No. 86, Book II. of Watts.)
clx.—Eight out of eleven stanzas. (Theodosia's Poems, vol. i. page 159 ; Bristol edition of 1780.) The stanzas omitted are the fourth, fifth, and sixth of the authoress.
clxviii.—Seven out of nine stanzas. The fourth and eighth of Watts are omitted.
clxxi.—Four out of six stanzas. The fourth and fifth of Watts' are omitted.
clxxvi.—From Hymns and Poems, by Sir Edward Denny, Bart. (Nisbet, 1848.)
clxxviii.—The first five out of six stanzas.
clxxx.—The text of this hymn is from Dr. Raffles' Collection, whom I understand (on Mr. Sedgwick's authority) to have had it from the author.
clxxxii.—This, and No. ccxcvi. are by Dr. Ray Palmer, a living American writer. The text has been compared with authentic American copies, and found correct.
clxxxvi.—Eight out of eleven four-line stanzas, which constitute the latter part of The Covenant and Confidence of Faith, in Baxter's Poems (Pickering's edition, 1821 ; page 71). The stanzas omitted are the first, third, and fifth, at the page referred to.
clxxxix.—Four stanzas out of eight. The hymn is No. 32 in John Austin's Offices. The stanzas omitted are the first three, and the " Gloria" at the end.
cxc.—Five stanzas out of six. The stanza omitted is Cowper's fifth.
cxci.—Five stanzas out of eight. Those omitted are Wesley's fifth, sixth, and seventh. The hymn is at page 30 of the Hymns and Sacred Poems (Second Edition ; Bristol, 1743).
cxciii.—The last stanza is wanting in Miss Elliott's Hours of Sorrow cheered and comforted (Fourth Edition, 1849 ; page 136). It is, however, as I have ascertained, the concluding stanza of the hymn, as originally composed by the authoress.
cxciv.—From a memoir of the Life of Oberlin. published anonymously in 1830 (London, Ball). The translator is Mrs. Daniel Wilson, of Islington ; who has kindly permitted me to give her name. It is very doubtful if the original is Oberlin's, though its true source has not been ascertained.
cxcv.—Five out of ten stanzas {Theodosia's Poems ; vol. 1, p. 134, of the edition of 1780). The stanzas omitted are the third to the seventh inclusive.
ecu.—From The Rivulet (Longman and Co.; Second Edition
1856). cciii.—Five out of ten stanzas, from Mant's Holydays of the Church |
