Quoted by Thomas Paine in his Age of Reason, ■page 36:
We read of prophesying with pipes, tabrets, and horns — of prophesying with harps, with psalteries, with cymbals, and with every other instrument of music then in fashion.
Were we now to speak of prophesying with a fiddle, or with
a pipe and tabor, the expression would have no meaning,
or would appear ridiculous, and to some people contemptuous, because we have changed the meaning of the word.
