III.

When thou seest thy Camerads knitting all things about them handsome and fast, before they march, say thou then, knit mine heart unto thee, O Lord, that I may feare thy name, for he that loveth not thee, must quake and feare, and it is a fearefull thing to fall into thy hands; for thy coming un∣to Iudgment is terrible, thy roaring is like a Lyon, and thy Sword a consu∣ming fire, no place can hide man from thy presence, thou seest the heart and the Reines, no secret is hid from thee, and who can escape thy venge∣ance? None, except they repent. Lord therefore save me from that bitter death, and give me grace to repent, that I may bewaile my misery, before I depart.
