O God thou hast cast us out and scattered us abroad Thou hast been displeased at us O Turn thee unto us again Thou hast moved the Land and divided it O heal the sores thereof for it shaketh Thou hast shewn Thy People heavy things and given us a Drink of Deadly Wine Thou hast made us to turn our backs upon our Enemies so that they which hate Us spoil our Goods Thou makest us to be rebuked of our Neighbours to be laugh'd to scorn and to be had in derision of them that are round about us But though all this be come upon us yet do we not forget Thee nor ●…ave our selves frowardly in Thy Co●…ant Our heart is not turned back nor our steps gone out of thy Way No not when thou hast smitten us into the place of Dragons and covered us with the shadow of Death Up Lord Why sleepest thou Awake and be not absent from Us for ever But O why hidest Thou Thy Face and forgettest our Misery and Trouble For our soul is brought low even unto the Dust and our Belly ●…eaveth unto the ground Arise help us and deliver us for Thy Mercies sake O God make speed to save us O Lord make haste to help us King David's Tears O My God why hast thou forsaken Thine Anointed and art displeased with him For Lo Thou hast broken the Covenant of thy servant and cast his Crown to the Ground Thou hast overthrown all his Hedges and broken down his strong holds So that all they that go by spoil him and he is become a Rebuke to his Neighbours For thou hast set up the Right hand of his Enemies and made all his Adversaries to rejoyce Thou hast put out his Glory and hast cast his Throne down to the Ground The Dayes of his Youth hast Thou seasoned with Bitternesse and covered him with dishonor But Lord how long wilt thou ●…ide thy self for Ever and shall thy Wrath still burn like Fire Remember O Lord the rebuke that Thy Servant hath and how he doth bear in his Bosom the Rebukes of many People And let his Adversaries be clothed with sham But upon his Head let his Crown flourish O help him against his Enemies for vain is the help of Man O God make speed to save Him O Lord make haste to help Him Jeremiah's Lamentations Propheticall of these Times HOw hath the Lord covered us with a Cloud in his anger and cast down from Heaven unto Earth the Beauty of Israel and remembred not his Footstool in the Day of his Wrath For Lo he hath bent his Bow as an Enemy He hath swallowed us up and hath not pittied He hath made desolate the Kingdom and the Princes thereof He hath cast off his Altars and abhorred his Sanctuary and hath given into the Hands of the Enemies the Walls of his Palaces He hath caused our solemn Feast●… and Sabbaths to be forgotten and hath despised in his Indignation the King and the Priest For the Lord hath now accomplished his ' Fury He hath poured out his fierce Anger He hath kindled such a Fire in Sion as hath devoured the Palaces thereof For the sins of the Prophets and and the Iniquities of the Priests who have shed the blood of the Iust in the midst of her For the Breath of our nostrils the Anointed of the Lord hath been taken in their Pits Of whom we said under his shadow shall we live in Peace But we have Transgressed and Rebelled and Thou hast not pardoned And therefore our eyes have as yet failed in our vain help For in our Watching we have watched for a Nation that could not save us Behold O Lord and Consider to whom thou hast done this O Lord Thou hast seen his Wrong Judge thou his Cause Thou hast seen all their vengeance and all their imaginations against him Thou hast heard all their Reproach O Lord and all their Imaginations against him The lips of thos that have risen up against him and their Devices against him all the Day O God make speed to save him O Lord make haste to help him II.
