Description:
|
Double page opening from Reverend Mr. Madan's hymns, showing Charles Wesley's "Hark the Herald Angels Sing". The editorial process that routinely preceded publication of Charles' verse is illustrated by comparing the original manuscript of the carol "Hark how all the welkin rings" with the published version. The original publication of 1739 had only minor amendments, but by 1760 the wording had changed to "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" and the number of verses reduced.
