SCHWENKFELDER HYMN0L0GY

the first three "Artickel" of the volume of 1758—the subdivisions of II. having become co-ordinate articles in the printed hymn-book. At the beginning of part II. are placed in order, articles IV. to XL inclusive of the "Verzeichniss" of 1758 —excepting VIII. which is given a new position. The remaining 19 articles of the volume of 1758 correspond in order to articles XXL—XXXV. inclusive of part II. of the Schultz hymn-book, with but two differences: XVII. and XXIII. not having been included among the rubrics of the Saur edition, and XIX. "Vom Christlichen Leben," having become "Vom Christlichen Wandel" (II. Theil, XII.). Articles VIII. and IX., XI., and XIII.-XX. ( II. Theil ) are the rubrics added by Schultz.

There is also a striking correspondence between the printed hymn-book and the volumes of 1758 and 1760—in the articles common to both—with respect to the hymns classified under a given rubric, as well as to the order in which they are arranged. Former Governor Pennypacker was impressed with this correspondence between the manuscript collection and the Saur edition, and without hesitation, noted on a fly-leaf of the volume of 1760 the following, relative to this matter: "This collection, which up to that time had remained in manuscript, formed the basis of the hymn-book printed by Saur in 1762." We have attempted below to illustrate the correspondence, by tabulating the hymns comprising a characteristic "Artickel" of the manuscript collection with those of the corresponding rubric in the Saur edition. The hymns marked thus (*) are found in both volumes, but differ as to position in the group. A blank line indicates the absence of a corresponding hymn. The parenthesis following each line, indicates the number of strophes.
