Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Sacred Lyrics N adding another collection of sacred poetry to those already existing, a somewhat different aim has been proposed than that of many previous gatherers in the same field. There is here no attempt to frame a hymn book; in fact, the pro portion of true hymns in the volume is unusually small. Nor is there any plan of presenting one system of doctrine, so as to include or exclude any opinions whatever. Neither, again, are great poets to be found here because they are great, nor lesser poets omitted because their names are little known, - the simple test has been whether the poems satisfied certain requirements, not in any degree who may have written them.
