The second part.

 [verse 11]  I said in my distress and fear,
That all men hars be:
 [verse 12]  What shall I pay the Lord for all
his benefits to me?
 [verse 13]  The wholsom cup of saving health
I thankfully will take:
And on the Lords Name I will call
when I my prayer make.

 [verse 14]  I to the Lord will pay the vows
that I to him behight:
Yea, even at this present time
in all his peoples sight.
 [verse 15]  Right dear and precious in his sight
the Lord doth ay esteem
The death of all his holy ones,
what ever men do deem,

 [verse 16]  Thy servant, Lord, thy servant, lo,
I do myself confess,
Son of thy hand-maid: thou hast broke
the bonds of my distress.
 [verse 17]  And I will offer up to thee
a sacrifice of praise:
And I will call upon the Name
of God the Lord always.

 [verse 18]  I to the Lord will pay the vows
that I have him behight,
Yea, even at this present time
in all his peoples sight.
 [verse 19]  Yea, in the courts of Gods own house,
and in the midst of thee,
O thou Jerusalem, I say;
wherefore the Lord praise ye.
