ecce_fw-la gui_fw-la tollit_fw-la peccata_fw-la mundi_fw-la pious_a instruction_n in_o meeter_n fit_v to_o the_o weak_a capacity_n thy_o justification_n be_v sing_v by_o i_o in_o the_o place_n of_o my_o peregrination_n ps_n 118._o v._n 54._o print_v in_o the_o year_n 1693._o with_o licence_n of_o superior_n advertisement_n 1._o consider_v that_o those_o for_o who_o i_o chief_o make_v these_o verse_n be_v not_o skill_v in_o the_o read_n of_o abbreviation_n which_o sometime_o be_v pronounce_v otherwise_o than_o they_o be_v write_v to_o avoid_v the_o confusion_n that_o may_v follow_v if_o i_o shall_v write_v they_o as_o usual_o word_n which_o be_v abbreviate_v end_v in_o d._n and_o be_v pronounce_v with_o a_o t._n i_o have_v write_v they_o with_o t._n as_o pronounce_v 2._o comply_v with_o the_o desire_n of_o some_o friend_n i_o have_v note_v in_o the_o margin_n several_a text_n which_o be_v relate_v unto_o in_o this_o book_n and_o common_o but_o one_o in_o a_o place_n althô_o there_o be_v many_o more_o relate_v to_o the_o same_o subject_n the_o margin_n not_o be_v capable_a to_o contain_v all_o 3._o and_o note_v that_o in_o the_o verse_n be_v not_o always_o the_o very_a same_o word_n of_o the_o text_n but_o sometime_o only_a the_o substance_n or_o allusion_n to_o the_o text._n 4._o again_o observe_v that_o the_o catholic_n bible_n name_v four_o book_n of_o king_n whereas_o the_o protestant_n call_v the_o two_o first_o the_o book_n of_o samuel_n and_o whereas_o the_o protestant_n divide_v the_o 9th_o psalm_n and_o join_v the_o 146._o and_o 147._o psalm_n in_o one_o which_o the_o catholic_n bible_n upon_o better_a authority_n do_v not_o in_o all_o my_o citation_n i_o follow_v the_o catholic_n bible_n and_o therefore_o the_o psalm_n which_o i_o cite_v between_o the_o 9th_o psalm_n and_o the_o 147._o be_v always_o the_o psalm_n follow_v in_o the_o protestant_a bible_n as_o for_o example_n when_o i_o cite_v the_o 136._o psalm_n upon_o the_o river_n of_o babylon_n it_o be_v the_o 137._o in_o the_o protestant_a bible_n and_o so_o of_o the_o rest_n the_o preface_n have_v be_v conversant_a above_o three_o and_o thirty_o year_n with_o the_o poor_a who_o to_o assist_v have_v be_v my_o employ_v i_o find_v a_o docile_a spirit_n among_o they_o and_o that_o many_o of_o they_o be_v hungry_a as_o i_o may_v term_v it_o and_o eager_a after_o instruction_n not_o so_o much_o in_o curiosity_n as_o to_o be_v inform_v of_o their_o duty_n but_o i_o fear_v this_o of_o holy_a jeremy_n be_v too_o much_o verify_v in_o these_o day_n the_o little_a one_o have_v ask_v bread_n and_o there_o be_v none_o that_o break_v it_o to_o they_o lament_n c._n 4._o v._n 4._o not_o but_o that_o there_o be_v many_o excellent_a sermon_n make_v many_o pious_a and_o learned_a book_n write_v but_o that_o man_n of_o this_o age_n be_v grow_v so_o curious_a and_o of_o itch_a ear_n after_o eloquence_n of_o speech_n quaint_a and_o refine_a language_n in_o prose_n poëticall_a fancy_n and_o conceit_n in_o verse_n that_o where_o these_o be_v not_o find_v the_o sermon_n or_o book_n take_v not_o let_v the_o subject_n be_v never_o so_o pious_a which_o make_v most_o preacher_n and_o writer_n incline_v to_o dress_v up_o what_o they_o render_v in_o such_o sort_n that_o it_o may_v be_v grateful_a to_o those_o who_o esteem_v themselves_o the_o wit_n of_o the_o age._n and_o perhaps_o all_o the_o profit_n they_o reap_v from_o they_o be_v this_o elogium_fw-la the_o man_n speak_v well_o he_o have_v write_v good_a language_n and_o be_v full_a of_o witty_a conceit_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n those_o who_o seek_v more_o after_o the_o virtue_n than_o the_o curiosity_n of_o the_o word_n be_v deprive_v of_o their_o desire_n the_o language_n or_o conceit_n so_o exceed_v their_o capacity_n that_o they_o can_v attain_v unto_o the_o sense_n and_o so_o make_v little_a or_o no_o advantage_n i_o speak_v not_o this_o as_o condemn_v such_o preacher_n or_o writer_n for_o certain_o when_o piety_n learning_n wit_n and_o eloquence_n be_v join_v together_o that_o be_v the_o most_o complete_a work_n but_o i_o rather_o make_v a_o apology_n for_o these_o plain_a verse_n which_o i_o dedicate_v unto_o the_o poor_a who_o indeed_o stand_v most_o in_o need_n of_o instruction_n which_o must_v be_v give_v to_o they_o in_o a_o humble_a and_o low_a stile_n befit_v their_o capacity_n wherefore_o i_o hope_v no_o pious_a person_n will_v carp_v at_o they_o which_o be_v beneath_o a_o poet_n censure_n since_o i_o pretend_v not_o to_o poetry_n in_o they_o but_o only_o have_v put_v such_o instruction_n as_o i_o think_v needful_a to_o the_o poor_a people_n in_o meeter_n fit_v for_o tune_n such_o manner_n of_o read_v being_n most_o delightful_a to_o young_a people_n soon_o learn_v and_o better_o retain_v which_o they_o may_v learn_v to_o sing_v and_o so_o prevent_v the_o great_a abuse_n that_o be_v now_o a_o day_n among_o many_o in_o sing_v profane_a and_o lascivious_a song_n and_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o some_o will_v say_v that_o these_o exceed_v the_o length_n of_o song_n i_o grant_v it_o but_o since_o i_o make_v they_o for_o instruction_n common_o the_o subject_n i_o treat_v of_o consider_v the_o capacity_n they_o be_v fit_v to_o can_v be_v full_o explicate_v in_o short_a to_o their_o advantage_n and_o they_o may_v serve_v the_o good_a man_n to_o sing_v work_v at_o his_o trade_n thereby_o to_o edify_v his_o family_n receive_v then_o you_o little_a one_o of_o christ_n flock_n and_o my_o dear_o belove_a these_o my_o small_a endeavour_n for_o you_o and_o make_v that_o use_n of_o they_o which_o i_o hope_v for_o when_o i_o make_v they_o that_o know_v what_o be_v evil_a you_o may_v avoid_v it_o and_o what_o be_v good_a you_o may_v embrace_v and_o put_v it_o into_o practice_n that_o so_o christ_n come_v may_v not_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o you_o who_o come_v not_o only_o to_o redeem_v you_o from_o sin_n but_o also_o to_o teach_v you_o virtue_n and_o if_o this_o book_n may_v happy_o advantage_v you_o in_o this_o as_o i_o hope_v it_o will_v i_o have_v what_o i_o aim_v at_o and_o as_o i_o ever_o have_v a_o love_n for_o and_o
