Brady, Nicholas

    0.09 sec.

Brady, Nicholas (1659–1726)

Irish poet and cleric. The metrical version of the psalms he made in collaboration with Nahum Tate gradually superseded the older version of Thomas Sternhold (1500–1549) and John Hopkins (died 1570). Brady also wrote a tragedy, The Rape (1652).

He was born in Bandon, County Cork, and educated at Oxford and Dublin universities. He supported the Protestant side in the revolution that removed James II, becoming chaplain successively to William III, Mary II, and Anne.
