Roaring Psalms (15 May 1763)

Boswell attended a service in Ludgate church "with patience and satisfaction". However, after a meal with friends, he went to Dr. Fordyce's meeting in Monkwell Street to hear Dr. Blair preach. Sadly, "Blair's New Kirk delivery and the Dissenters roaring out the Psalms sitting on their backsides, together with the extempore prayers" had the reverse effect. In truth, "the whole vulgar idea of the Presbyterian worship made me very gloomy". Boswell hastened to St. Paul's where the conclusion of the service "had my mindset right again".
