Together two parts published in two volumes five years apart; rare survival. Doll's two volumes of church music are the earliest German language music books to use type to print the notes. The type font was called four-shape note system. It copied the type created and first used by Little and Smith in The Easy Instructor published in 1801 and was used by John Wyeth without acknowledgement. In addition to introducing this type to the Pennsylvania German tune-book tradition, Wyeth was responsible for the development of Southern folk hymnody. E. C.
