hast done great things, O God who is like to thee? Thou which hast shewed me great and sore troubles, shalt quicken mee againe, and shalt bring mee up againe from the depthes of the earth. Thou shalt en∣crease my greatnesse, and comfort me on every side. I will also praise thee, with the Psaltery even thy truth: O my God unto thee will I sing with the Harpe, O thou holy one of Israel: My lips shall greatly rejoyce when I sing unto thee: and my soule which thou hast redeemed: my tongue also shall talke of thy righteousnesse all the day long: for they are confounded, for they are brought unto shame that seeke my hurt.
