PSALM CXXV.

THey, who the Lord their Fortress make, Shall like the Towers of Sion rise; Which dreadful Earth-quakes never shake, Nor raging tumults of the skies. Lo! as the Hills of Solyma Divine Ierusalem enclose: So shall his Angels in the Day Of danger, shield them from their Foes. The Wicked shall not long subject Their holy Race; lest through despair They should the Laws of God neglect, And be as their Commanders are.

Page 214

Lord, to the Good be good; the Just Protect: Their punishments increase, Who follow their rebellious lust: But crown thy Israel with Peace.
