Notes
  • Frontispiece engraved by Peter Maverick.
  • Text printed in two columns.
  • Cf. the issue in which the imprint gives the Bartows' address as no. 124 Water-Street. Though Shaw & Shoemaker entry 41894 does not note or distinguish the two issues, number 41894 has since been assigned to that issue rather than the issue described here.
  • "The Psalter, or Psalms of David."--p. 223-315, 1st count.
  • "Articles of religion ..."--p. [316]-321, 1st count.
  • "The form and manner of making, ordaining, and consecrating bishops, priests, and deacons ..."--p. [322]-338, 1st count.
  • "The litany and suffrages."--p. 338-341, 1st count.
  • "The order for the administration of the Lord's Supper, or Holy Communion."--p. [342]-350, 1st count.
  • "The form of consecration of a church or chapel ..."--p. [351]-354, 1st count.
  • "An office of institution of ministers into parishes or churches ..."--p. [355]-360, 1st count.
  • "The whole book of Psalms, in metre; with hymns, suited to the feats and fasts of the church, and other occasions of public worship. Stereotyped by E. & J. White. New-York: Published by Robert & William A. Bartow. D. Fanshaw, print. 241 Pearl-St. 1817."--105, [1] p., 2nd count, with separate title page. Includes indexes, p. [95-106].
