“The Psalms are the manna of the church. As manna tasted to every man like that he liked best, so do the Psalms minister instruction, and satisfaction, to every man, in every emergency and occasion.”—English poet and Church of England cleric John Donne (1572-1631), Sermon 66 (Preached at St. Paul’s, Jan. 29, 1625), in The Works of John Donne, Volume 3
