all filthy avarice Lord shield me with thy grace 37 From vain desires and worldly lusts turn back mine eyes and sight Give me the spirit of life and power to walk thy wayes aright 39 Reproach and shame which I so fear from me O Lord expell For thou dost judge with equity and therein doth excell 40 Behold my hearts desire is bent thy laws to keep for aye Lord strengthen me so with thy grace that it perform I may The fourth Collect. 41 THy mercies that are manifold let me obtain O Lord Thy saving health let me enjoy according to thy Word 42 So shall I stop the standrous mouths of lewd men and unjust That have so much reproached me for in thy word I trust 60 I did not stay nor linger long as those that slothfull are But hastily thy laws to keep I did my self prepare 61 The cruell bands of wicked men have made of me their prey Yet did not I thy laws forget nor from thee go astray 62 Thy righteous judgements are so great so holy and so high That even at midnight I will rise thy Name to magnifie The fifth Collect. ERe thou didst touch me with thy rod I err'd and went astray But now I keep thy word O God and by it guide my way 71 O happy time well may I say that thou didst me correct For like a guide thy Law to learn thy rod did me direct 76 Thy judgements very righteous are O Lord I do confesse I know thou hast afflicted me of very faithfulnesse 107 I am afflicted very much but quicken me O Lord And raise me to an holy life according to thy word 114 Thou art my hid and secret place my shield and strong defence And on thy Word I fix my faith my hope and confidence PSAL. CXXII 1. M. Ye children c. I Did exceedingly rejoyce To hear the loving peoples voice in offering of their own accord For in this manner did they say Come let us up and take our way unto the temple of the Lord Within thy gates Jerusalem Our feet shall come and stand in them to worship and to offer there Jerusalem is built so neat Compact together and compleat the like there is not anywhere 2. The holy tribes with one accord The tribes I say of God the Lord to Israels testimonie came Thither they went on solemn dayes To worship and to offer praise unto the Lords most holy Name For there are stately thrones erect Erected there for this respect for justice and for equity Which thrones of right do appertain To Davids house which there must reign to judge his folk accordingly 3. O pray therefore and do not cease But pray for our Jerus'lems peace lo they shall prosper that love thee Peace be within thy walls say I I wish as much prosperity within thy palaces to be My brethren and companions dear Make me now say let peace be here I wish it heartily to thee The temple of our God no lesse Makes me to seek thy happinesse as much as ever lies in me PSAL. CXXVIII 1. M. BLessed art thou that fearest God and walkest in his way 2 For of thy labour thou shalt eat happy art thou I say 3 Like fruitfull vines on thy house side so doth thy wife spring out Thy children stand like olive plants thy table round about 4 Thus art thou blest that fearest God and he shall let thee see 5 The promised Jerusalem and her felicity 6 Thou shalt thy childrens children see to thy great joyes increase And likewise grace on Israel prosperity and peace PSAL.

CXXXI 1. Col. O Lord I am not puft in minde I have no scornfull eye I do not exercise my self in things that be too high 2 But as the childe that weaned is even from his mothers brest So have I Lord behav'd my self in silence and in rest 3 O Israel trust in the Lord let him be all thy stay From this time forth for evermore from age to age for ay PSAL. CXXXII 1. Col. RRemember Davids troubles Lord how to the Lord he sware And vowed a vow to Jacobs God the greatest of his care 2 I will not come within my house nor climb up to my bed Nor let my temples take their rest nor th' eyes within thy head 5 Till I have found out for the Lord a Temple for his grace An house for Jacobs mighty God to be a dwelling place 7 We will assay and go into his Tabernacle there Before his foot-stool falling down to worship him in fear 9 O Lord let all thy Priests be cloath'd with truth and righteousnesse Let all thy Saints and holy men sing out with joyfulnesse The second Collect. 13 THe Lord hath chosen Sion hill and loves therein to dwell Saying this is my resting place I love and like it well 14 And I will blesse with great increase her victuals every where And I will satisfie with bread the needy that be there 15 Yea I will deck and clothe her Priests with saving health throughout And all the Saints of Sion hill for joy shall sing and shout 16 There will I surely make the horn of David for to bud For there I have ordain'd for mine a lantern bright and good 17 As for his enemies I will clothe with shame for evermore But I will cause his crown to shine more fresh then heretofore PSAL.

Coll. THe Lord our God deals not by us according to our sin Nor after the iniquities that we have lived in 11 But as the space is wondrous great twixt earth and heaven above So is his goodnesse much more large to them that do him love 12 God doth remove our sins from us and our offences all As far as is the Sun-rising full distant from his fall 13 And look what pitie parents dear unto their children bear Like pitie bears the Lord to such as worship him fear 14 The Lord that made us knows our shape our mould and fashion just How weak and frail our nature is and how we are but dust 15 And how the time of mortall men is like the withering hay Or like the flow'r right fair in field that fades full soon away 16 But yet the goodnesse of the Lord with his shall ever stand Their childrens children do receive much goodnesse at his hand 17 I mean which keep his covenant with all their whole desire And not forget to do the thing that he doth them require PSAL.

CXVI the Col. I Love the Lord because he heard my earnest suit and cry 2 And call upon him while I live that heard me formerly 3 Ev'n when the snares of cruell death on every side I found When pains of hell laid hold on me and sorrow did surround 4 Upon the Name of God my Lord then did I call and say Deliver thou my soul O Lord I do most humbly pray 5 The Lord is very mercifull and just he is also And in our God compassion doth plentifully flow 6 The Lord in safety doth preserve all those that simple be I was in wofull misery and he deliver'd me 7 And now my soul sith thou art safe return unto thy rest For largely lo the Lord to thee his bounty hath exprest 8 Because thou hast delivered my soul from deadly thrall My moistned eies from mournfull tears my sliding feet from fall 9 Before the Lord in land of life now will I walk therefore 10 I did beleeve therefore I spake for I was troubled sore PSAL.
