Excerpt from The Sacred Lyre, Comprising Poems, Devotional, Moral and Preceptive: Including Many Original Pieces; With an Introduction and a Copious Index Hausa and Ponor are mentioned, this will be a suflicient apology; it is to us matter of deep regret, that while they sung, and while they delighted with their strains, we were reminded of the singing of the swan, whose music was lovliest when about to expire. 'e may also state that many originals are scattered throughout our as with the signatures Past and -h!'l are placed before the public with the. Utmost fi dena'; and if they afford but a slight. Gramfisin the perusal, the authors will be suflciently recompensed for any little pains bestowed on their composition. As no expense has been spared in the execution and embellishment of the Sacred Lyre, it is to be hoped that this circumstance, as well as the general merits of the selection will yield a considerable degree of satisfaction to those who may favour it with a perusal. In conclusion we would only remark, that from the contents of this volume being of a serious character, it may be te commended as a suitable companion for the evening of that day when all is calm, and when the mind is settled into a sacred repose; since we may be per mitted to hope that pious precepts will not be the less acceptable by being conveyed to the heart in the varied measure of Sacred Song.
