Corinth 14.26 The first sort being Gods infallible word were sung in his Church with harmonie of voices and the other scriptures were read 1. Corinth 16.7.8 2.

Chron. 29 25 26 27. yet doth not the ceasing of that musik abolish the singing of psalms with melodie in our hearts any more than the ceasing of incense which was burned with prayer doth abolish now prayer out of the Church Psal 141 2.
