The Conscience wounded with sin.
OH, my mine iniquities my sin, my sin,
Too heavy for me, oh I sinck therein,
It doth go over as it were my head:
Intolerable burden, no such lead:
My wounds are putrifi'd, corrupt and stinck,
My foolishnesse is such; my teares I drink:
Troubl'd and pressed with the weight I beare,
All the day mourning, never free from care;
My loynes are fil'd with loathsomnesse, besides
There is no soundnesse in my flesh abides:
My conscience roares within me, and the smart
Torments me with the anguish of my heart.
