PE.
Thy Word, the Gate of Life, even Babes inspires With Knowledge: this my obsequious Soul ad∣mires: This I with thirsty appetite devour. Thy streams of Mercy on thy Servant pour. Compose my steps: so shall not sin subject, Nor man oppress: for I thy Laws affect. Shine on my Soul; thy Statutes teach: mine Eyes Shed show'rs of tears, when men thy Laws despise.
