               vnto thee, that I may feare thy Name.    12  I wil and cannot get foorth.  9  Mine eye is sorowfull
               prayse thee, O Lord my God, with all mine heart: through mine affliction: Lord, I call dayly vpon
               yea, I wil glorifie thy Name for euer.    13  For thee: I stretch out mine hands vnto thee.  10 Wilt
               great is thy mercie toward me, and thou hast      thou shewe a miracle to the dead?       or shall
               deliuered my soule from the lowest graue.   14 O  the dead rise and prayse thee? Selah.   11  Shall
               God, the proude are risen against me, and the     thy louing kindenes be declared in the graue?
               assemblies of violent men haue sought my soule,   or thy faithfulnes in destruction?  12  Shall thy
               and haue not set thee before them.  15 But thou,  wonderous workes be knowen in the darke? and
                                                                                                           13
               O Lord, art a pitifull God and mercifull, slowe to  thy righteousnes in the land of obliuion?  But
               anger and great in kindenes and trueth.  16 Turne  vnto thee haue I cryed, O Lord, and early shall my
               vnto me, and haue mercy vpon me: giue thy         prayer come before thee.  14 Lord, why doest thou
               strength vnto thy seruant, and saue the sonne of  reiect my soule, and hidest thy face from me?
               thine handmayd.   17 Shew a token of thy goodnes  15 I am afflicted and at the point of death: from
               towarde me, that they which hate me, may see      my youth I suffer thy terrours, doubting of my
               it, and be ashamed, because thou, O Lord, hast    life.  16 Thine indignations goe ouer me, and thy
               holpen me and comforted me.                       feare hath cut me off.  17 They came round about

               Leannoth. O Lord God of my saluation, I cry day of the Saints, and to be reuerenced aboue all,
               and night before thee.   2  Let my prayer enter   that are about him.    8  O Lord God of hostes,
               into thy presence: incline thine eare vnto my     who is like vnto thee, which art a mightie Lord,
               cry.  3  For my soule is filled with euils, and my  and thy trueth is about thee?  9  Thou rulest the
               life draweth neere to the graue.  4  I am counted  raging of the sea: when the waues thereof arise,
               among them that go downe vnto the pit, and        thou stillest them.  10  Thou hast beaten downe
               am as a man without strength: Free among the      Rahab as a man slaine: thou hast scattered thine

               dead, like the slaine lying in the graue, whome   are thine, the earth also is thine: thou hast layde
