In a letter to John Adams, dated from Monticello on October 12, 1813, Jefferson wrote: “
. . . I have no hesitation in giving him [the Psalmist]
the palm over all the Hymnists of every language, and of every time . . . the best collection of these psalms is that of the
Octagonian dissenters of Liverpool in their printed Form of prayer; but they are not always the best versions. indeed bad
is the best of the English versions; not a ray of poetical genius having ever been employed on them . . .
””
Edited by
John Seddon, 1725-1770, Rector of Warrington Academy, for the use of the “Octagonians”, who worshipped in the Octagon chapel built in
Liverpool in 1762 under the leadership of Thomas Bentley, 1731-1780, manufacturer of porcelain.
