Introduction 



THE first edition of the Bay Psalm Book, or New 
England version of the Psalms, printed by Stephen 
Daye at Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1640, has 
the distinction of being the first book printed in English 
America. 

When the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth in 1620, and 
founded the first permanent colony in New England, they 
brought with them Henry Ainsworth s version of the 
Psalms in prose and metre, with the printed tunes. 1 This 
version was used in the church at Plymouth until 1692. 
Elsewhere, the Puritan colonists of the Massachusetts Bay, 
coming over in 1629 and 1630, sang the words and tunes 
of Sternhold and Hopkins s Psalms, which for many years 
had been published with the ordinary editions of the Eng 
lish Bible. 2 

1 The first edition of Ainsworth s version has the following title : 
The Book of Psalmes : Englished both in prose and metre. With anno 
tations, opening the words and sentences, by conference with other scrip 
tures. By H. A. [With the music.] Amsterdam: Giles Thorp, i6iz. 
348 pp. 40. (British Museum.) Reprinted in metre in 1618 (Lenox), 
in metre in 164.2 (Prince collection in Boston Public Library), in prose 
and metre in 1644 (British Museum, Lenox), in metre in 1644 (Trinity 
College at Cambridge), and probably later. 

2 The Geneva Bible of 1569 was probably the first to have this 
version bound with it. The usual title is : The Whole Booke of 
Psalmes .- collected into English meeter by T. Sternhold, J. Hopkins, and 
others . . . moith apt notes to sing them <vuithall. More than two 
hundred editions between the years 1569 and 1640 are described in 
the British Museum Catalogue, and it was printed and appears to have 
been in use as late as 1841. 



Introduction 

The translation by Sternhold and Hopkins, however, 
was not acceptable to many of the nonconformists. Some 
of the extremists in England even called it ct Hopkins his 
Jigges " and " Genevan Jiggs." Cotton Mather in his 
Magnolia sets forth the opinion held of it by the Puritans 
of the Bay Colony in the following words : " Tho they 
blessed God for the Religious Endeavours of them who 
translated the Psalms into the Meetre usually annex d at 
the End of the Bible, yet they beheld in the Translation 
so many Detractions from, Additions to, and Variations of, 
not only the Text, but the very Sense of the Psalmist, that 
it was an Offence unto them." 

The desire for a translation which would express more 
exactly the meaning of the original Hebrew led to the 
undertaking of a new version, not long after the year 1636, 
in which u the chief Divines in the Country, took each of 
them a Portion to be Translated." Just what portions 
were done by each one of the " thirty pious and learned 
Ministers" then in New England, or how many others 
aided in the work, we have no means to determine. It is 
related by John Josselyn, 1 that when he visited Boston on 
July nth, 1638, he delivered to Mr. Cotton the Teacher 
of Boston church, " from Mr. Francis Quarles the poet, 
the Translation of the 16, 25, 51, 88, 113, and 137. 
Psalms into English Meeter, for his approbation." It is 
possible that some of these contributions of Mr. Quarles 
were incorporated in the new version. 

The principal part of the work, we are told, was com 
mitted to Mr. Richard Mather, minister of the church in 
Dorchester, who probably wrote the preface also, 2 and to 
Mr. Thomas Welde and Mr. John Eliot, associate minis 
ters of the church in Roxbury. " These, like the rest," 
says Cotton Mather, "were of so different a Genius for

handwriting, is among the Prince MSS. in the Boston Public Library.

Introduction 

their Poetry, that Mr. Shepard of Cambridge, on the Occa 
sion addressed them to this Purpose. 

<* You Roxb ry Poets, keep clear of the Crime, 
Of missing to give us very good Rbime. 
And you of Dorchester, your Verses lengthen, 
But with the Texts own Words, you will them strengthen." 

It is unnecessary to repeat here the criticisms of Professor 
Tyler and others on the u hopelessly unpoetical character " 
of this version. Dr. William Everett aptly remarks that 
the fault lay largely in the excess of reverence for the sub 
ject ; and he calls attention to the fact that John Milton 
attempted to turn nine of the Psalms into English verse, 
adhering as closely as possible to the original, with a result 
as harsh and dry as anything in the Bay Psalm book. 1 

In the meantime a printing press had been brought over 
to Massachusetts, while the new Psalm Book was prepar 
ing. It was mainly through the efforts of the Rev. Joseph 
or Josse Glover, formerly rector of Sutton, in Surrey, that 
this was accomplished. He raised funds in England and 
in Holland, contributed largely himself, procured the press, 
types, and paper, and engaged the printer, Stephen Daye, 
under contract dated June 7, 1638. Sailing with their 
respective families, and with three men servants to help 
the printer, the party arrived in New England, probably in 
September, 1638; excepting, however, Mr. Glover, who 
u fell sick of a feaver and dyed," either on the voyage or 
just before they started. 

In March, 1639, according to Winthrop, the printing 
house was begun at Cambridge, the first things printed 
being the Freeman s Oath, probably on a single sheet, and 
an Almanack made for New England by Mr. William 
Peirce, mariner. Neither of these publications is known 
to be extant.

Introduction 

The next thing printed was the Psalmes newly turned 
into metre, which was finished at the press in 1640, in an 
edition of seventeen hundred copies. It thus " had the 
Honour," according to Thomas Prince, " of being the First 
Book Printed in NORTH AMERICA." 

From a deposition made by Stephen Daye in 1655, in 
the suit brought by Glover s heirs against Henry Dunster, 
president of Harvard College, we learn that the cost of 
printing the seventeen hundred copies was 33, that one 
hundred and sixteen reams of paper were used, valued at 
^"29, that the book was sold at twenty pence per copy, 
and that the total receipts from sales were estimated at 
14.1 131. \d., leaving a profit of 79 13*. 4^. 

The new Psalm Book was adopted at once by nearly 
every congregation in the Colony of Massachusetts Bay, 
and for that reason it came to be known as the " Bay " 
Psalm Book. A revised and enlarged edition, under the 
title of The Psalms Hymns and Spiritual Songs of the Old and 
New Testament^ was printed at Cambridge in 1651, in an 
edition of two thousand copies, and in this form it ran 
through many editions in New England, the latest being 
"The Twenty-seventh Edition," printed at Boston in 
1762. 

The churches of Salem and Ipswich did not formally 
adopt the new Psalm Book until 1667, in which year the 
Salem church decided that u the Bay psalm book should be 
made use of together with Ainsworth s." In Plymouth 
Colony the use of Ainsworth was continued as before 
until 1692, when the church there also agreed "to sing 
the psalms now used in our neighbor churches in the 
Bay." 

Even in England, as Thomas Prince remarks, the book 
was "by some eminent Congregations prefer d to all 
Others in their Publick Worship." Reprinted there first 
in 1647, and in the revised form in 1652, it ran through 
more than twenty English editions, the latest bearing the 
date of 1754. In Scotland, too, at a later period, the book 



Introduction 

was used in the Presbyterian churches to some extent, half 
a dozen Scotch editions appearing between the years 1732 
and 1759. These English and Scotch editions were usually 
bound with Bibles of octavo size, and in that form many 
of them were imported for use in New England. 

After being used for upwards of a century, and running 
through more than fifty editions, the Bay Psalm Book gave 
way to the newer versions of Tate and Brady and of Isaac 
Watts. Among others, the church in Dedham voted for 
the change in 1751 ; the New North Church in Boston, in 
1755; the church in Ipswich, before 1757; the First 
Church in Roxbury, in 1758; and the First Church in 
Boston, in 1761. In 1755, the Rev. Thomas Prince, 
minister of the Old South Church in Boston, began a new 
revision of the Bay Psalm Book, which was finished by 
him and adopted by his congregation in 1757, the book 
being published in 1758, and in a second edition in 1773. 
But in 1786 the Old South Church followed in the way of 
the others, and gave up Mr. Prince s Revision for Watts s 
Psalms and Hymns. 

Ten copies of the first edition of the Bay Psalm Book 
are known to be extant. Five of these copies were at one 
time in the possession of Rev. Thomas Prince, as part of 
his u New England Library," and by him were bequeathed 
in 1758, with his other books, to the Old South Church in 
Boston, " to be kept and remain in their Public Library for 
ever." After remaining in the steeple chamber of the 
church for nearly one hundred years, 1 three of these Psalm 
Books, between the years 1850 and 1860, passed into 
the hands of Mr. Edward A. Crowninshield of Boston, 
Nathaniel B. Shurtleff, M.D., of Boston, and Mr. George 
Livermore of Cambridge. According to a memorandum 
made by Dr. Justin Winsor, in August, 1871, for knowl-

Introduction 

edge of which I am indebted to Mr. Edmund M. Barton, 
librarian of the American Antiquarian Society at Worcester, 
the volumes were transferred to these gentlemen by the late 
Lt. Governor Samuel T. Armstrong, who had joint cus 
tody of the Prince Library as one of the deacons of the 
Old South Church. " He surrendered the copies to these 
private hands in consideration of certain modern books 
given to said library, and of the modern binding bestowed 
on one or more of the copies now remaining in said 
Prince Library." The record of the ten copies is as 
follows : 

(i) JOHN CARTER BROWN LIBRARY, Providence, R. I. 
Perfect, but with a small portion of the blank margin of 
the title-page and the lower blank margin of the leaf 
of errata cut out ; in the original old calf binding, re- 
backed. Size of leaf, six inches and seven-eighths by 
four inches and one-half. It was first owned by Richard 
Mather, one of the translators, whose autograph signature 
is in several places on the fly leaves and covers. From 
the Mather family it passed to the Rev. Thomas Prince, 
the bookplate of whose "New England Library" is pasted 
on the back of the title. By Prince it was bequeathed to 
the Old South Church, in his will dated October 2, 1758, 
"and from that time till 1860, the book remained in the 
custody of the deacons and pastors of that church. In 
that year it was given by the church, through the proper 
agents, to the late Nathaniel Bradstreet ShurtlefF, M.D." 
On Dr. ShurtlefPs death his library was offered for sale 
at auction by Leonard & Co., Boston, November 30 to 
December 2, 1875, but the Psalm Book was withdrawn 
because the deacons of the Old South Church obtained an 
injunction to prevent its sale. After a hearing before the 
Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, the injunction was 
dissolved and the book adjudged to belong to Dr. ShurtlefPs 
estate. It was therefore advertised again, in a four-page cir 
cular, to be sold at auction, on October 12, 1876, by Joseph 
Leonard; and it was sold for $1025, to Mr. Sidney S. 



Introduction 

Rider of Providence, from whom it was bought by Mr. 
Caleb Fiske Harris. After the death of Mr. Harris, 
who was drowned in October, 1881, his collection was 
placed for sale in Mr. Rider s hands, and he sold the 
Psalm Books of 1640 and 1647 to tne Brown Library, 
$1500 being given for them together with books worth 
considerable more. See Catalogue of the Library of Dr. 
N. B. Shurtleff (1875,) no. 1356; Catalogue of Books 
relating to North and South America in the Library of 
the late John Carter Brown, part 2 (1882), pp. 2OI- 
20 2 ; Victor H. Paltsits in the Literary Collector, Decem 
ber, 1901, p. 70. 

(2) MRS. ALICE GWYNNE VANDERBILT, New York. 
Perfect. It is one of the five copies bequeathed by 
Thomas Prince in 1758 to the Old South Church, from 
whose collection it passed by exchange, between the years 
1850 and 1860, to Mr. Edward A. Crowninshield, as 
related above. In the catalogue of Mr. Crowninshield s 
library, announced to be sold at auction by Leonard & 
Co., Boston, in November, 1859, tne book is described 
as u in the original old vellum binding." The whole 
library, however, was withdrawn and sold at private sale 
for $10,000 to Mr. Henry Stevens, who took it to Lon 
don, where the Psalm Book was offered to the British 
Museum for ^150. Its purchase not being approved, 
the book was withdrawn by Mr. Stevens, and after being 
rebound by F. Bedford in u dark brown crushed levant 
morocco," was sold in 1868 to Mr. George Brinley of 
Hartford, for 150 guineas. At the Brinley sale in March, 
1879, it was bought for the late Mr. Cornelius Vander- 
bilt for $1200. The statements in the Memorial History 
of Boston, vol. i (1880), and in the Catalogue of the John 
Carter Brown Library, part 2 (1882), that this copy was 
destroyed in a warehouse fire in New York, not long after 
its purchase by Mr. Vanderbilt, are both incorrect. Mrs. 
Vanderbilt writes that the book now belongs to her, and 
that it has never been injured in any fire. See Catalogue

Size of leaf, six inches and fifteen-sixteenths by four

about the year 1850, by Mr. George Livermore of Cam 
bridge, whose signature is on the inside of the front cover. 
In 1855 Mr. Henry Stevens of London made a trade 
with Mr. Livermore by which he received from him 
twelve leaves out of this volume (sheets W, X, and Y) 
to supply an imperfection in the copy which he sold after 
wards to Mr. Lenox. After Mr. Livermore s death in 
1865, some of his books were deposited in the library of 
Harvard College, but they were subsequently withdrawn, 
and all were sold at auction by Charles F. Libbie & Co.,

Mr. James Lenox (1886), pp. 61-62, where an error is 
made in stating that only four leaves were taken from this 
copy to perfect the Lenox copy. The same error is 
repeated in Mr. Littlefield s Early Boston Booksellers (1900), 
pp. 1 8-2 1, where another error is made about the Souldiers 
Pocket Bible, which was not received from Mr. Stevens 
as part payment for the twelve leaves, but was given to 
Mr. Livermore by Mr. Crowninshield, whose inscription 
to that effect is in the volume.

are the two remaining copies of the five originally given by 
Thomas Prince to the Old South Church in Boston. In 
1866 they were deposited with the rest of the collection in 
the Boston Public Library. They are described in the printed 
catalogue as follows : " There are in the Prince library 
two copies of this rare book, one of which (21. 15) is com 
plete, with the exception of a slight mutilation of the Finis 
leaf, and the absence of the following leaf, which contains 
on the recto a list of c Faults escaped in printing. The 
other (21. 14) which alone has the book-plate of the c New 
England Library, has a small part of page Ee supplied in 
manuscript, and is otherwise complete." See Catalogue of 
the American Portion of the Library of the Rev. Thomas Prince 
(1868), p. 16; and The Prince Library, A Catalogue of the 
Collection of Books and Manuscripts (1870), p. 7. 

(6) HARVARD COLLEGE LIBRARY, Cambridge, Mass. 
Imperfect, lacking the first six leaves and the last four leaves ; 
re-bound in October, 1900. The book was given to Har 
vard College Library in October, 1764, by Middlecott 
Cooke, of Boston, a graduate of the Class of 1723. See 
Catalogue of the Library of Harvard "University^ vol. 2 
(1830), p. 679; and information from Mr. William C. 
Lane, the librarian. 

(7) AMERICAN ANTIQUARIAN SOCIETY, Worcester, Mass. 
Imperfect, lacking the title-page and the leaf of errata at the 
end ; in the " original vellum binding." " The upper portion 
of next to last leaf is torn and a corner from the first page 
of the Preface." It was given to the American Antiquarian 
Society by Isaiah Thomas, whose book-plate is in the vol 
ume. On one of the fly leaves Mr. Thomas has written 
the following note : " After advertising for another copy 
of this book, and making enquiry in many places in New 
England, &c. I was not able to obtain or even to hear of 
another. This copy is therefore invaluable, and must be 
preserved with the greatest care. It is in the original binding.

letter P; and information from Mr. Edmund M. Barton, 
the librarian. 

(8) LENOX COLLECTION, New York Public Library. 
Slightly imperfect, the upper corner of leaf G being torn off, 
taking away portions of three lines on both sides ; in modern 
binding. Size of leaf, seven inches and one-sixteenth by 
four inches and three-quarters. This copy turned up at 
the sale of the Fourth and concluding portion of the extensive 
and valuable collection of books, formed by the late Mr. William 
Pickering, of Piccadilly, bookseller, at Sotheby & Wilkinson s 
auction rooms, London, on Jan. 12, 1855, in a lot which 
was catalogued as follows : 

43 2 Psalms. The Psalms of David, 1 640 Another copy, 
1639 The Psalms of David, translated by Bishop King, russia, 
gilt edges, 1654 The Psalms, by Barton, 1654 Another 
copy, 1682 The whole Book of Psalms, with the Singing 
Notes, 1688 The Psalms of David, in Meeter, 1693 
I2mo. 8 vol. 

The lot was bought by Mr. Henry Stevens for 2 iSs. 
On examining the book, Mr. Stevens discovered that twelve 
leaves (sheets W, X, and Y) were lacking, having been left 
out by the original binder. These twelve leaves were finally 
obtained from Mr. Livermore s copy, as related above, and 
after being mended and re-margined, they were inserted in 
this copy ; the book was rebound in red morocco by F. Bed 
ford, and was then sold by Mr. Stevens to Mr. Lenox for 
80. See Stevens, Recollections of Mr. James Lenox (1886), 
pp. 57-62, where, besides the error in stating the wrong num 
ber of leaves found lacking in this copy, an error is also made 
in referring to the wrong number in the Pickering sale 
catalogue ("531 Psalmes. Other editions, 1630 to 1675, 
black letter, a parcel "), which was bought by " Holmes " 
for nineteen shillings. 

(9) MR. E. D WIGHT CHURCH, Brooklyn, N. Y. In 
the original old calf binding ; lacking the first four and the

last three leaves, which were supplied later in facsimile. 
Size of leaf, seven inches (nearly) by four inches and five- 
eighths. Accompanying the book is a manuscript note of 
which the following is an extract : " It belonged to the 
Shuttleworth family, & is now handed to my daughter 
Sophia S. Simpson, to be used at her own discretion, by her 
beloved mother. Sarah Shuttleworth, 1844." About the 
year 1872 it was bought by the late T. O. H. P. Burnham, 
of the "Antique Bookstore" in Boston, not knowing at 
the time exactly what it was. Years afterwards, on com 
parison by Mr. R. C. Lichtenstein with the 1640 edition 
in the Public Library, it was found to be a genuine copy 
of that edition. In August, 1892, it was sold to the late 
Bishop John F. Hurst, of Washington, D. C., and in 
February, 1903, shortly before his death, it was bought by 
Messrs. Dodd, Mead & Co., from whom it passed to the 
present owner. 

(10) BODLEIAN LIBRARY, Oxford. "The copy in the 
Bodleian is perfect. It formerly belonged to Bishop 
Tanner." Cotton s Editions of the Bible (1852), p. 177. 
Bishop Tanner died December 14, 1735 ; and by his will, 
dated November 22, 1733, he bequeathed his manuscripts 
and books to the Bodleian. " Unfortunately, when Tanner 
was removing his books from Norwich to Oxford, in De 
cember, 1731, by some accident in their transit (which was 
made by river) they fell into the water, and were submerged 
for twenty hours. The effects of this soaking are only 
too evident upon very many of them. The whole of the 
printed books were uniformly bound in dark green calf, 
apparently about fifty years ago -, the binder s work was 
well done, but unhappily all the fly-leaves, many of which 
would doubtless have afforded something of interest, with 
regard to the books and their former possessors, were re 
moved." Macray s Annals of the Bodleian Library (1868), 
pp. 155156. See the Caxton Celebration Catalogue (1877),

Introduction 

In October, 1860, it was announced in the Historical 
Magazine that C. B. Richardson & Co. " have nearly ready 
ufac-simile reprint " of the Bay Psalm Book, limited to fifty 
copies ; and in the November number it was stated that the 
whole edition had been taken up by subscribers. The book 
appeared fifteen months later, with title as below, and with 
a preface by Dr. ShurtlefF, dated January, 1862, in which 
we are informed that all the peculiarities of the original, in 
cluding broken type, inverted letters, and other errors, had 
been reproduced exactly by the modern compositor : 

A Literal Reprint of the Bay Psalm Book Being the Earliest 
New England Version of the Psalms and the First Book 
Printed in America (Fifty Copies for Subscribers) Cambridge 
Printed [at the Riverside Press] for Charles B. Richardson 
New York 1862 vii pp., psalms (148) leaves, list of sub 
scribers (2) pp. 8. 

Besides the fifty copies for subscribers, Mr. Livermore 
had fifteen extra copies printed on thick paper for pres 
entation, besides five copies on India paper, and one copy 
on vellum. The vellum copy was retained by Mr. Liver- 
more, at whose sale in 1894 it brought $76. 

In issuing the present reproduction, which is the first 
one ever made in exact facsimile, the publishers have used 
the copy belonging to Mr. Church, and also the copy in the 
Lenox Branch of the New York Public Library. In com 
paring these two copies of the original edition side by side, it 
was found that the printed matter on every page of the 
Lenox copy measured a little more each way than in the 
Church copy, the variation being nearly one eighth of an inch. 
The difference in size, however, was not typographical, 
but was caused merely by the shrinkage of the paper, which 
in one copy had been more exposed to the air than in the 
other, and was not so smooth and flat. The peculiarity re 
ferred to will be noticed in comparing the first three leaves 
of the preface, reproduced from the Lenox copy in the 

[xvi] 



Introduction 

present facsimile, with the three leaves following, repro 
duced from the Church copy. In each case the facsimiles 
are the exact size of the originals. It is an interesting fact 
to know that shrinkage of paper can make such a difference 
in the measurement of the printed page in different copies 
of the same book.

writ) but to be fling alfo, they are therefore mom

were inabled to praife the Lord in ftrange tongu- 
es, wherin learned FATAUS proves thofe pfalrnes 
were uttered, in his Commet on that place ttcn i* 
which extraordinary gifts, if they were ftill in the 
Churches, wee fhould allow them the like liberty 
now. Secondly, fuppofe thofe pfelmes were fung 
by an ordinary, gifc (which wee fuppofe cannot be; 
cvi&ed) doth it therefore follow that they did 
r,oty & that we ought not to fing Davids p&lmes 
Itiuft the ordinary gifts of a private, man quench

Ans. Firft becaufe every good minifter hathaot 
a gift of Ipirituall poetry to compofe extempora^

pofe he had, yet feeing pfalmes are to be fung by a 
5oyntconfent and harmony of all the Church ia 
heart and voyce (as wee (hall prove) this cannot 
be done except he that compofeth a pfalme, bring 
cth into the Church fet formes of pfalmes of his 
owne invetion^for which wee finde no warrant or 
ptefident in any ordinary officers of the Church 
throughout the fciptures. Thirdly. Becaufe

itewifdome hath made to fuk all the conditions,

in all ages^ (as moft of all our interpreters on the 
pfalmes have fully and particularly cleared)there 
tore by this the lord feemeth to ftoppe all mens 
mouths and rtiifides ordinarily to compile or 
Cng any other pfalmes (under colour that the 
ocafionsand conditions of the Church are new) 
&c. for the publick ufeof the Church, feing,!ec 
our condition be what it will, the Lord himiclfe 
hath fupply ed us with farre better; and therefore 
in Hezckiahs time, though doubtlefle there were 
among them thofe which had extraoridnary gifts 
to compile new fongs on thofe new ocafioris, as 
Jfaiahand Micah &c. yet wee read that they arc 
commanded to fing in the words of David and 
Afaph, which were ordinarily to be ufed in the 
publick worfliip of God : and wee doubt not but 
thofe that are wife will eafily lce that thofe 
(et formes of pfalmes of Gods owne appoynt* 
mcnt not of mans conceived gift or humane 
impofition were fung in the Spirit by thofe ho* 
ly Levites* as well as their prayers were in 
the fpirit which themfelves conceived, the 
lord not then binding them therin to any 
fet formes and fhall let formes of pfalmes 
appoyntedofGodnot befur^ in the fpirit now, 
which others did then ?

If (uch:a praaife was found in the Church 
of Corinth, when ally had a pfalme fuggefted by 
an extraordinary gift- yet in fmging ordinary

The*

anfwered ia this new edition of pfalraes which 
wee here prefent to God and his Churches. For 
although wee have caufe to bleffe God in many 
refpefts for the religious indeavours of the 
tranflaters of the pfalmes into meetre ufually an 
nexed to our Bibles , yet it is not unknowne to 
the godly learned that they have rather presented 
a pafraphrafe then the words of David tranflaN 
ed according to the rule zcbron.iq. so. and 
that their addition to the words, detractions from 
the words are not feldorne and rare, but very fre 
quent and many times needles, (which we fup- 
pofe would not be approved of if the pfalmes 
were fo tranfhted into profe) and that their 
variations of the feofe, and alterations of the 
lacred teKt too frequently , may iuftly itiinifte*

therefore done our indeavour to make aplaine 
and familiar tranflation of the pfalmes and words 
oi David into englifh metre, and have not foe 
much as prefumed to paraphrafe to give the fenfe 
of his meaning in other words* we have therefore
