A vindication of Mr. George Buchanan's paraphrase of the Book of psalms, from the objections rais'd against it by William Benson, Esq; Auditor in Exchequer, in the supplement and conclusion he has annex'd to his prefatory discourse to his new edition of Dr. Arthur Johnston's version of that sacred book. In which also, upon a comparison of the performances of those two poets, the superiority is demonstrated to belong to Buchanan. Wherein likewise several Passages of the Original are occasionally illustrated: Together with some useful Observations concerning the Latin Poetry and Arts of Versification. In a letter to that learned gentleman. By Thomas Ruddiman, A.M.
