Ebonics
Made the final sentence on the status of Ebonics more objective by changing from "rather was plagerized from English" to "is a vernacular form of English."

Metrical psalter
First, I added a paragraph to clarify the difference between purely literary translations in iambic pentameter, the preference outside of London for 8s and 6s, the scorn that Londoners felt for 8s and 6s, and the names of the meters that use 8s and 6s. Secondly, I gave the fill title of Isaac Watts' 1719 metrical interpretation.

Rhymed psalter
Expanded the line about Isaac Watts, giving "Isaac" instead of initial, the full title, and the date of earliest publication rather than the date of the 27th edition. The title indicates that this is not intended as a translation in the strict sense.

Exclusive psalmody
Isaac Watts never intended to provide a strict translation, and carefully explains his approach to "imitation" or "interpretation" in the introductory matter.
