LXX.
Eternal lord, God of immortal glore,though I in love my self and sense have lost
by vainlie vowing quhome now I do abhor,
with sighs and teares causd baithe by flams & frost,
though, soverene prence, I have in playning most
bewaild my panis bot not bewaild my sinn,
and so maid sad in me thy holie ghost,
yet drawe my saule from hell that thense doth rin.
this, O Sueit lord, to grant I will begin,
that I have blaikned beutyes lovd and servd,
and hethe adord bot outward bark and skin,
and earthlie things to heunlye hes preferd:
yet let thy mercie the to mercie move,
and off my mortal mak immortal love.
