Another to the Tune of Psal. 147.
SION, thou art a Palm, Under great Pressures growing, Whose Branches, Ensigns are, Of Victory overflowing. Triumphantly, Thy Charet shall Ride over all Victoriously. The more their weights were hung On every tender Bough: The straighter, upright, thou Dost toward Heaven grow. Thy Martial-word Is Victory: Thy Foes shall fly Before thy Sword. The Branches of the Palm, Shall Crown thy glorious Head▪ Thou shalt enjoy a calm: Thine Enemies all are fled.
