The mighty God, &c.
LORD make our Sons as plants grown up in youth,our Daughters as the carved corner stonesOf some fair Pallace, which an artist dotherect with Pillars, making curious ones:Our Garners full all sorts of store containing:Our Sheep by thousands, and ten thousands yeaning.Our Oxen strong to labour, fat of flesh,no breaking in where dread and danger meets:No going out to wars begun afresh,no sad complaining uttered in our streets.
descriptionPage 686
Happy the people blest so for their bodies,Yea, happy people, whose protector God is.
