PSALM XXXVI.
The wicked man's bould sinnes my heart doe tell,Noe feare of God before his eyes doth dwell;
Yet flattereth hee himselfe in his owne sight
Untill his hatefull deeds bee brought to light;
His words are lies, and most deceiptfull too,
He leaues of[f] quite all honest deeds to doe;
Hee on his bed doth nought but mischeife muse,
Hee shunns noe ill and noe good way doth choose;
Thy mercie Lord doth to the heauens extend,
Thy faithfullnes doth to the Cloudes assend;
Thy justice stedfast as a mountaine is,
413
Thy noble mercies saue all liueinge thinges,
The sonnes of men creepe underneath Thy winges:
With Thy great plenty they are fedd at will,
And of Thy pleasure's streame they drinke their fill;
For euen the well of life remaines with Thee,
And in Thy glorious light wee light shall see;
To them that know Thee, Lord, bee loveinge still,
And just to them whose heart intends noe ill;
Let not the foot of pride tread on my Crowne
Nor the hand of the vngodly cast mee downe:
False are the wicked in ther slippery wayes,
And haue noe power againe themselues to raise.
