Cast off, and scattered scattered in thine Ire

Cast off, and scattered scattered in thine Ire in thine Ire, Lord on our woes with pity pity look. The Lands inforc'd inforc'd foundations shook inforc'd foundations shook; whose yawning ruptures sighs sighs sighs expire. O O cure the breaches the breaches thou hast rent, and make her make her firmly firmly permanent.

Our Souls thou hast with sorrow fed with sorrow fed; and mad'st us drink of deadly deadly Wine. Yet now yet now thy Ensigns giv'st to thine thy Ensigns giv'st to thine to thine Ev'n when beset with trembling dread that we thy Banner may display, that we thy Banner may display, whilest truth to conquest conquest makes our way.

George Sandys.
