Ephesians5:19

Verſe 19. Speaking to your ſelves, &c.] As drunkards ſing and hollow over their cups in their good-[illegible: 1 letter]ellow-meetings: ſo, in a ſober ſenſe, doe you expreſſe your ſpirituall jollity in Pſalms, &c.

Melody in your hearts unto the Lord] This is the beſt tune to any Pſalm. Spirituall ſongs they are called, both becauſe they are indited by the ſpirit, and becauſe they ſpiritualize us in the uſe of them.
