 After the custom of the old Cathedrals the I'saltcr is daily recited by the Canons, one portion 
 by each person privately, as a memorial of their fraternal unity in work and worship, a.)d as a 
 spiritual intercession for the whole Church ; concerning which holy use Ur. Donne, sometnne Dean 
 of St Paul's wrote • "Every day God receives from us Canons, howcvdr we be cPivided from one 
 another in place, the sacrifice of praise i,v the whole Hooke of I'salmcs. Ami though we may be 
 absent fi-^m thw r^nire, yet, wheresoever dispersed, we make up a quire .in this service of saymg

 which must accrue to the increased clficicncy of these organizations from a strong unifying and

 and so dwell with his brethren in this Thy house in perfect charity, that after the course of this 
 life ended, he may receive of Thy favour, the reward of lifq incorruptible ; through the same
