The Sabbath in Puritan New England

The New England meeting-house

The church militant

By drum and horn and shell

The old-fashioned pews

Seating the meeting

The tithingman and the sleepers

The length of the service

The icy temperature of the meeting-house

The noon-house

The deacon's office

The Psalm-book of the Pilgrims

The Bay Psalm-book

Sternhold and Hopkins' version of the Psalms

Other old Psalm-books

The church music

The interruptions of the services

The observance of the day

The authority of the church and the ministers

The ordination of the minister

The ministers

The ministers' pay

The plain-speaking Puritan pulpit

The early congregations.
