This is one of the best collections of hymns
which , Weluive eves seen. In a 'Marne at duel%
magnitude as the one before ns, it is to be ex
pected that much variety of poetical merit will
appear. We are rather surprised to find that a
volume containing some five hundred and forty
hytnns, there does not appear to be even one
taken from the Scriptural Paraphrases used by
the Church of Scotland. Surely the , hymns be
ginning with, " To him that loved the souls of
men," " HoW bright these glorious spirits shine,"
" Father of peace and God of Love," " I'm not
ashamed to own my Lord," "Hark the glad i
sound, &0..," "How glorious Zion's courts ap.'
