[verse 11] Although I say thou suffer men, on vs to ryde and raygne: Though we through fyre and water ren of very grief and payne. [verse 12] yet sure thou dost of thy good grace, dispose it to the best: And bring vs out into a place, to liue in wealth and rest.

The vowes I say whiche I did make, in dolor of my hart.
[verse 15] Burnt offringe I will geue to thee, of Oxen fat and Rammes: No other sacrifice shalbe, of bullockes goates and lamkes. [verse 16] Come forth and harken here full sone, all ye that feare the Lorde: what he for my poore soule hath done. to you I will record.
