p. 103 (At the time the celebrated Leoni sang at the synagogue, he gave such general delight by his execution of this melody, that it was adapted to English words for the service of the Protestant church, and has since been published in a collection of Psalms, and named after Leoni ( (Musurgia Vocalis, 1836, Jan. 31, 2022:) )
