O how love I thy Law! it isLine 97 my study all the day. It makes me wiser then my foes:Line 98 for it doth with me stay. Then all my teachers, now I haveLine 99 more understanding far: Because my meditation thy▪ testimonies are.
In understanding I excellLine 100 those that are ancients, For I endeavoured to keep all thy commandements. My feet from each ill way I stay'd,Line 101 that I may keep thy word. I from thy judgements have not swerv'd,Line 102 for thou hast taught me, Lord.
How sweet unto my taste, O Lord,Line 103 are all thy words of truth! Yea, I do finde them sweeter far, then honey to my mouth. Line 104
