Promiscuous singing no divine institution : having neither president [sic] nor precept to support it, either from the musical institution of David, or from the Gospel dispensation. : Therefore it ought to be exploded, as being a humane invention, tending rather to gratify the carnal ears of men, than to be acceptable and pleasing worship to God. / By John Hammett. ; [Six lines of quotation].
