And in the number of their tribes, no feble one there was.
Egipt was glad and ioyfull then, when they did thense depart:
For terrour and the feare of them, was fallen vpon theyr hart.
To shroude them frō the parching heat a cloude he did display:
And fire he sent to geue them lyght, when night had hid the day.
They asked and he caused quayles, to rayne at their request,
And fully with the bread of heauen, their hunger be represt.
He opend then the stony rock, and waters gushed out,
And in the drye and parched groundes lyke riuers ranne about.
For of his holy couenant, ay myndefull was he thoe:
Which to his seruant Abraham, he plighted long agoe.
He brought his people forth with mirth and his elect with ioy:
Out of the cruell land where they, had lyued in great anoye.
And of the heathen men he gaue, to them the frutefull landes,
The labors of the people eke they toke into theyr hands.

That they his holy statutes might, obserue for euermore.
And faithfully obey his lawes, prayse ye the Lorde therfore.
