4to. with the device of the Printers, whose Colophon I have transcribed
above, as it seems to militate against the supposition entertained by
Warton,[9] that the Work was never published, but that the Archbishop
permitted his wife to present the Book to some of the nobility.
“This copy, very curiously bound, was probably given by her to the Church
of Canterbury,” says the compiler of the Catalogue of its Library; but I
know not on what grounds beyond mere conjecture; and I regret to add that
the ancient binding has been replaced by a modern suit of morocco, the
colour of which has been so much impaired by damp that I could scarcely
believe it had once been purple.
These Psalms, translated into English Metre by Archbishop Parker,
were finished in 1557, and a few years afterwards printed. The Book
is extremely scarce, excepting in public libraries. Strype, the
ecclesiastical historian, relates that he could never obtain a sight of
it. At the sale of the Books belonging to the late Dr. Farmer in 1798,
a copy of this Work was sold for three pounds six shillings; and in Mr.
Bright’s sale, in 1845, for forty pounds ten shillings.
Of Works of Divinity in this Library, the number is so considerable that
