The Music of the Pilgrims: A Description of the Psalm-Book Brought to Plymouth in 1620
(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Henry Ainsworth
Edit ProfileEducation
He was educated at Caius College, Cambridge, became a Brownist, and because of religious persecutions was compelled to leave England.
Career
He lived in straitened circumstances at Amsterdam; in 1593 he had to work as a porter for a bookseller. In 1596 he was appointed teacher of the independent church where Francis Johnson was minister in Amsterdam. In that year he published his Confession of Faith of the People called Brownists. All was not going well with the church, however; Ainsworth and Johnson found themselves disagreeing on many points, especially in their ideas of what the power of the church ought to be. In 1610 Ainsworth and his followers withdrew, but they seemed to have won a lawsuit giving them possession of the church building. His works include A Defence of Holy Scripture Worship and Ministry used in the Christian Churches separated from Antichrist and against the Challenges, Cavils and Contradictions of Mr.
Smyth (1609); and Annotations of various books of the Old Testament published at different times and first collected in 1627. He died at Amsterdam late in 1622 or early in 1623. According to an improbable story in Neal's History of the Puritans, Ainsworth died of poison administered to him by Jews he had defeated in an argument.
