| King James Psalms
I believe that King James VI/I of Scotland/England prepared a poetic translation of the Psalms. I think they are found in The Poems of James VI of Scotland, ed. James Craigie, 2 vols (1955). I was wondering if they are online anywhere, or if there are any articles available which discuss this work. Also, I am wondering if they were composed in meter and ever sung, as from a Psalter. There may be discussion of this in Millar Patrick's Four Centuries of Scottish Psalmody, which I have, but have not yet checked. Any thoughts?
