SECT. VI. Devotions to be used upon the days of our Examination, relative to that duty.
The Hymne.
THe Lord is in his holy temple, the Lords throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eye lids try the children of men.
The Lord tryeth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
For the righteous Lord loveth righteousnesse: his countenance doth behold the upright.
The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
Thou hast proved mine heart, thou hast visited me in the night, thou hast tried me and shalt find nothing: I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.
Hold up my goings in thy paths: that my foot∣steps slip not.
As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tryed; he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.
For who is God save the Lord? and who is our rock save our God?
