Remedies against despaire in case of want and poverty.

THe poore shall eat and be suffic'd, and they That seeke God, praise him, and shall live for aye, The poore and needy he will not despise, Nor hide his face from their complaints and cries. Psal. 22.24.26. Although I be of meane degree and poore, The Lord is mindfull of me evermore. Psal. 40.17. Delight your selves in God with hearts entire, And he will give to you your hearts desire. Psal. 37.4. All wait on thee, yea things void of all reason, That thou their food maist give them in due season. Psal. 104.27. The needy God will raise out of the dust, Out of the dung, the poore that in him trust. Psal. 113.7. For want of food the lions may be pin'd, But such as feare the Lord shall succour find. Psal. 34.9.10. I have been yong and now a•• wa••ed old And in this case to speake I dare be bold, That I the godly man did never see Forsaken quite, nor his posterity Through want constrained for to beg their bread, But ever have been by Gods goodnesse fed. Psal. 37.25. Cast thou thy burthen on the Lord, and he In times of dearth and want will nourish thee. Psal. 56.24.

Trust in the Lord, to do good give thy mind, Dwell in the land, and thou shalt succour find. Psal. 37.3.
