The second part.
[verse 9] O God that giv'st all health and gracey on us declare the same: Weigh not our works, our sins deface, for honour of thy Name. [verse 10] Why shall the wicked still alway, to us as people dumb, In thy reproach rejoyce, and say, Where is their God become?
Require, O Lord, as thou seest good, before our eyes in sight, Of all these folk thy servants bloud which they spilt in despight. [verse 11] Receive into thy sight in haste the clamours, grief, and wrong Of such as are in prison cast, sustaining irons strong.
Thy force and strength to celebrate, Lord, set them out of band Which unto death are destinate, and in their enemies hand. [verse 12] The nations which have been so bold as to blaspheme thy Name. Into their laps with seven fold repay again the same.
[verse 13] So we thy flock and pasture-sheep will praise thee evermore, And teach all ages for to keep for thee like praise in store.
