Book excerpt: This psalter is the Psalms of David, Authorized King James Version, pointed for chanting. It is the culmination of Prose Psalters authorized by the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, the first appearing in 1610. The musical portion is identical to THE PSALTER AND SELECTED PASSAGES OF SCRIPTURE, 1888, the only changes being revision and improvement in the pointing of words. The "chants adapted thereto or specially composed for this work [of 1888] by Sir Herbert Stanley Oakeley." This is a split leaf psalter meaning two sets of pages may be turned to match any chant with any psalm. Computer users will open two files and cascade the windows to view the psalm and chant music simultaneously.
