Hebrew Melodies is both a book of songs with lyrics written by Lord Byron set to Jewish tunes by Isaac Nathan as well as a book of poetry containing Byron's lyrics alone. The version with musical settings was published in April 1815 by John Murray; though expensive at a cost of one guinea, over 10,000 copies sold. In the summer of the same year Byron's lyrics were published as a book of poems.
The melodies include the famous poems "She Walks in Beauty", "The Destruction of Sennacherib" and "Vision of Belshazzar".
