To the Reader.

My brother has left several manuscript volumes of Short Hymns, upon various passages of Scripture; particularly on the Four Gospels and the Acts of the Apostles. Many of these are no ways inferior to those that have been already published. A specimen of them I purpose to publish in the ensuing Magazine. The whole will probably see the light in some future period.
