"What chiefly delights us in the Singing Master is the intermixture of many little moral songs with the ordinary glees. These are chiefly composed by Mr. Hickson himself, and we could scarcely imagine anything of the kind better executed. They relate to exactly the class of subjects which all who wish well to the industrious orders would wish to see imprinted on their inmost nature-contentment with their lowly, but honourable lot, the blessings that flow from industry, the fostering of the domestic affections, and aspirations for the improvement of society."-Chambers' Journal, Oct. 20, 1838.
