21
Psal. xi.
Since quholly I myself comitted haue
into the great iehouas keeping ay
quhy then unto my soule thus do ye say
lyke baisedest litle birde flitt from youre hill
for lo thir uikked bouis are bending still
& aroues fitt the string for to ressaue
to shoote out of â darke & quyet pairt
againis the richt & upricht into hairt.

to shoote out of â darke & quyet pairt

but thay shall by thir same destroyed be
for quhat hath done the iust deserue? or hou?
godd in his temple of holyness is nou
in hiest heauenis is placet iehouaise throne
his eyes beholde & quhat is euer done
by sonnes of men thay cleyrlie spy & see
the lorde he doth trye out the iust aricht
& haitis in hairt the euill & urongfull uicht.

he rayne shall on the uikked coalis of fyre
uith fyre the self & brimstone pearcing fell
the uynde that he uith flammis doth ioyne & mell
shall be the portion of the cupp for thame
but yett the lorde yea euen the uerrie same
doth iustice loue as iust in his empyre
& als the richteouse man uith pleasande face
he gratiouslie dois looke on full of grace.
