PSALM XCI.
* 1.3WHo makes th' Almighty his retreat, Shall rest beneath his shady Wings; Free from th' oppression of the Great, The rage of War, or wrath of Kings. Free from the cunning Fowlers train; The tainted airs infectious breath: His Truth in perils shall sustain, And shield thee from the stroke of Death. No terrors shall thy sleeps affright; Nor deadly flying Arrows slay: Nor Pestilence devour by Night, Or Slaughter massacre by Day. A thousand and ten thousand shall Sink on thy Right hand and thy Left: Yet thou secure shall see their fall; By vengeance, of their lives bereft. ••••nce God thou hast thy Refuge made, And do'st to him thy Vows direct; No evil shall thy strength invade, Nor wasting plagues thy roof-infect. Thee shall his Angels safely guide; Upheld by winged Legions, Lest thou at any time shouldst slide. And dash thy Foot against the Stones.Page 159

PSALM XCVII.
* 1.12O Earth! joy in Jehovah's Reign; You numerous Isles, clasp'd by the Main. Him rolling Clouds and Shades infold. Judgement and Truth his Throne uphold. Who fiery Darts before him throws; With winged flames consumes his Foes. His Lightning made a day of night; Earth trembled at so fear'd a sight.Page 167

PSALM XCIX.
LEt our Foes with terrour quake;* 1.14 Let the Earths Foundations shake: Now the Lord his Reign begins, Thron'd between the Cherubins. O how great in Sions Towers! High above all Mortal Powers. Great and terrible his Name: Since so holy, praise the same. Judgement his great Power affects; Yet by Equity directs. These celestial Twins imbrace; These reflect on Iacobs Race. O how holy! above all Honour; at his Foot-stool fall, Moses; Aaron heretofore Among those who Mitres wore: Samuel by Vow desir'd, Among those who were inspir'd. These to him their Prayers preferr'd, These by him as soon were heard. These his Statutes rarely brake: Unto these th' Almighty spake In the Pillar of a Cloud: To his Service ever vow'd. He did their Petitions hear, Merciful, and yet severe. The Holy on his Holy Hill Glorifie, and worship still.Page 170
