Shawm. In the Prayer book version of Psalms 98:6, "with trumpets also stands also and shawms" is the rendering of what stands in the Authorized Version, "with trumpets and sound of cornet." The Hebrew word translated cornet is treated under the head. The "shawm" was a musical instrument resembling the clarinet.
