He stood aloft and compassed the land And of the Nations doth defusion make The mountains rent the hilles for feare did quake His vnknown pathes no man may vnderstand The Morians tentes euen for their wickednes I might behold the land of Midian Amaz'd and trembling like vnto a man Forsaken quite and left in great distresse What did the riuers moue the Lord to ire Or did the floods his Maiesty displease Or was the Lord offended with the seas That thou camest forth in chariot hot as fire Thy force and power thou freely didst relate Vnto the tribes thy oath doth surely stand And by thy strength thou didst deuide the land And from the earth the riuers seperate The mountaines saw and trembled for feare The sturdy streame with speed foorth passed by The mighty depthes shout out a hideous crie And then aloft their waues they did vpreare The Sun and Moon amid their course stood still Thy speares and arrowes forth with shining went Thou spoilest the land being to anger bent And in displeasure thou didst slay and kill Thou wentest foorth for thine owne chosens sake For the sauegard of thine annointed one The house of wicked men is ouerthrowne And their foundations now goe all to wracke Their townes thou strikest by thy mightie power With their own weapons made for their defence Who like a whyrl-wind came with the pretence The poore and simple man quite to deuoure ●●ou

did me annoy In time of trouble where I might find rest For to reuenge when once the Lord is prest With plagues he wil the people quite destroy The fig-tree now no more shall sprout nor flourish The pleasant vine no more with grapes abound No pleasure in the citie shall be found The field no more her fruit shal feed nor nourish The sheep shall now be taken from the fold In stall of Bullocks there shall be no choice Yet in the Lord my Sauiour I reioice My hope in God yet wil I surely hold God is my strength the Lord my only stay My feet for swiftnesse it is he will make Like to the Hinds who

mightie citie thou makest ruinat The strongest townes thou bringest to decay A place where strangers vsually do stay And shall not be reduc'd to former state The proudest people therefore stoupe to thee The strongest cities haue thee still in feare Thou strengthnest the poore man in dispaire And helpest the needie in necessitie Thou art a sure refuge against a shower A shadow which doth from the heat defend The raging blasts the mighty forth doth send Is like a storme which shakes the stateliest tower Thou shalt abate the forraine strangers pride Like as the heat doth drie the moistest place The glorie of the proud thou shalt deface Like as the cloudes the sunny beames doo hide The Lord of hostes shal in this mount prouide And to his people here shal make a feast Offatted things and dainties of the best Of Marrow and wines finely purified And in this Mountaine by his mightie hand That same dark cloud the Lord wil cleane destroy Euen with the vaile which doth his folke annoy And death no more before his face shall stand The Lord will wipe out of his chosens eies The teares which doo their faces so distaine And their rebuke shal now no more remaine Thus saith the Lord these be his promises And men shal say then loe this same is he This is our God on whom we did attend This is the Lord that will vs stil defend We will be glad and ioyfull Lord in thee Thy hand oh Lord here in this mount shall rest And cursed Moab shall by thee be beaten As in thy iudgment thou of long doost threaten As in Mamena straw of men is thresht And ouer them the Lord his hand shal holde As he that swimmeth stretcheth him at length And by his power and by his mighty strength The proud and stout by him shal be controlde Thy highest walles and towers of all thy trust He shall bring downe and lay them all full lowe Vnto the ground his hand shall make them bow And lay thy pride and glorie in the dust An other Song of the faithfull wherein is declared in what consisteth the saluation of the Church In the xvi Chap. of the prophesie of Isaiah ANd in that day this same shal be our song In Iuda land this shall be sung and said We haue a citie which is woondrous strong And for the walles the Lord himself our aid Open the gates yea set them open wide And let the godly and the righteous passe Yea let them enter and therein abide Which keepe his lawes and do his trueth imbrace And in thy iudgment thou wilt sure preserue In perfect peace those which doo trust in thee Trust in the Lord which dooth all trust deserue He is thy strength and none but onelie he He will bring downe the proud that looke so hie The stateliest buildings he wil soone abase And make them euen with the ground to lie And unto dust he will their pride deface It shall be troden to the verie ground The poore and needy downe the same shal tread The iust mans way in righteousnes is found Into a path most plaine thou wilt him lead But we haue waited long for thee oh Lord And in thy way of iudgment we do rest Our soules doth ioy thy name still to record And thy remembrance doth content vs best My soule hath long'd for thee oh Lord by night And in the morn my spirit for thee hath sought Thy iudgments to the earth giue such a light As al the world by them thy trueth is taught But shew thy mercie to the wicked man He wil not learne thy righteousnes to know His chiefe delight is still to curse and ban And vnto thee himselfe he will not bow They doo not once at all regard thy power Thy peoples zeale shall let them see their shame But with a fire thou shalt thy foes deuoure And cleane consume them with a burning flame With peace thou wilt preserue vs Lord alone For thou hast wrought great woonders for our sake And other Gods beside thee haue we none Only in thee we all our comfort take The dead and such as sleep within the graue Shal giue no glorie nor yeeld praise to thee Which here on earth no place

nor being haue And thou hast rooted out of memorie Oh Lord thou doost this nation multiply Thou Lord hast blest this nation with increase Thou art most glorious in thy maiesty Thou hast inlarg'd the earth with perfect peace We cride to thee and oft our hands did wring When we haue seen thee bent to punishment Like to a woman in childbyrth traueiling Euen so in paine we mourne and doo lament We haue conceiu'd and laboured with paine But only wind at last we forth haue brought Vpon the earth no hope there doth remaine The wicked world likewise auailes vs nought The dead shal liue and such as sleep in graue With their own bodies once shal rise againe Sing ye that in the dust your dwelling haue The earth no more her bodies shall retaine Come come my people to my chamber here And shut the doores vp surely after thee Hide thou thy selfe and doo not once appeare Nor let thine eies mine indignation see For from aboue the Lord is now dispos'd To scourge the sinnes that in the world remaine

The Praier of Iudith for the deliuerance of the people In the ix Chap. of the book of Iudith OH Lord the God of Simeon my soueraigne Father deare To whom thou gauest strength and might the sword in hand to beare To take reuenge on those which first the maidens wombe did tame And spoiled her virginitie with great reproch and shame For which offence thou gauest vp their princes to be slaine so that their wounds with gory blood their beds did all distain Their seruāts with their lords ech one haue felt thy wrath alike who sitting in their roial seat thou sparest not to strike Their wiues their daughters their goods thou gau'st for thy behoue As prais as captiues as spoiles to those whō thou didst loue who modu'd with zeale could not abide their blood defil'd to see Then heare me Lord a widow poore which here do cal to thee things past things not yet discern'd thy prouidence hath wrought Things present the things to come by thee to passe are brought Each thing is present at thy call thy wisdome doth deuise Thy secret iudgments long before thy knowledge doth comprise Th' Assirians now in multitude a mighty number are Whose horsmen on their barbed horse themselues to war prepare Their hope in footmen doth consist in sling in speare and shield They know not thee to be the Lord whose force doth win the field Let all their force their strength power he by thy might abated Who vow thy Temple to defile which thou hast consecrated Yea to pollute thy Tabernacle thy house and holy place And with their instruments of war thine Altars to deface Behold their pride and poure on them thy wrath and heauy yre And strength my hand to execute the thing I now desire Smite thou the seruant and the Lord as they together stand Abate their glory and their pride euen by a womans hand For in the greatest multitude thou takest not delight Nor in the strong and valiant men consisteth not thy might But to the humble lowly meeke the succourlesse and poors Thou art a help defence refuge and louing sauiour My father in thy name did trust O Israels Lord most deare Of heauen of earth of sea and land doo thou my praier heare Grant thou me wit sleight power strēgth to woūd

hauing slaine Holophernes In the xvi Chap. of the book of Iudith TVne vp the Timbrels then with laud vnto the Lord Sound foorth his praise on Simbals loud with songs of one accord Declare shew his praise also his name rehearse In song of thankes exactly pend of sweet and noble verse The Lord he ceaseth warres euen he the verie same Tis he that doth appease all strife Iehouah is his name The which hath pitcht his tent our surest strength and aide Amongst vs here least that our foes shuld make vs once dismaid From northren mountain tops proud Assur came a downe With warlike men a multitude of famous high renowme Whose footmen stopt the streams where riuers woont to flowe And horsmen couered all the vales that lay the hilles belowe His purpose was for to destroy my land with sword and fire To put my yongmen to the sword did thirst with hot desire My children to captiuitie he would haue borne away My virgins so by rape and force as spoiles and chiefest pray But yet the high and mighty Lord his people doth defend And by a silly womans hand hath brought him to his end For why their mightie men with Armes were not subdude Nor with their blood our yoong mens hands were not at al imbrude No none of Titans line this proud Assirian slue Nor any Gyants aid we crau'd this souldier to subdue But Iudith she alone Meraris daughter deere Whose heauenly hue hath bred his vaine and brought him to his beere She left her mourning weed and deckt her selfe with gold In royall robes of seemly showe all Israell to behold With odors she perfum'd her selfe after the queintest guise Her haire with fillet finely bound as Art could wel deuise Her slippers neat and trim his eies and fancie fed Her beautie hath bewitcht his mind her sword cut off his head The Perseans were amaz'd her modestie was such The Medes at her bold enterprise they marueiled as much Amongst th' Assyrians then great clamors can arise When as the fact so lately done apear'd before their eies the sons which erst my daughters haue euen on their bodies born Haue slaine them as they fled in chace as men so quite forlorne Euen at the presence of the Lord the stoutest turn'd his backe His power did so astonish them that al things went to wracke A song now let vs sing of thankes vnto the Lord Yea in a song of pleasant tune let vs his praise record Oh God thou mightie Lord who is there like to thee In strength and power to thee oh Lord none may compared be Thy creatures all obey and serue thee in their trade For thou no sooner spakst the word but euery thing was made Thou sentest foorth the spirit which did thy worke fulfill And nothing can withstand thy voice but listen to thy will The mountains shal remoue wher their foundation lay Likewise the floods the craggy rocks like wax shal melt away But they that feare the Lord and in him put their trust Those will he loue and stil impute amongst the good and iust But woe be those that seeke his chosen flocks decay The Lord God wil reuenge their wrongs at

wrought t'intangle vs withall May turne vnto their owne decay and on their heads may fall Remember Lord and shew thy selfe to vs in time of need And strengthen me thou King of kings Lord of power

none that may resist thy will Thou know'st all things and this of thee is knowne I did not erst for malice nor for ill Presumption nor vaine glorie els at all Come nor bow downe vnto proud Hamans call I could haue bin content for Israels sake To kisse the soles euen of his verie feet But that I would not mans vaine honor take Before Gods glorie being so vnmeet And would not worship none O Lord but thee And not of pride as thou thy selfe doost see Therefore oh Lord my God and heauenly king Haue mercie on the people thou hast bought For they imagine and deuise the thing How to destroy and bring vs vnto nought Thine heritance which thou so long hast fed And out so far from Egypt land hast led Oh heare my praier and mercie doe extend Vpon thy portion of inheritance For sorrowe now some ioy and
