THen will I breake out into a canticle of praise with greate affection, saying the wordes of this Psalme.
Blesse our Lord o my soule, and all that is within mee praise his holy name: blesse our lord, o my soule, and bee not forgetfull of the fauour that hee hath donne thee hee remitteth all thy sinnes, and healeth all thy Infirmities: hee redeemeth thy life from deathe, and crowneth thee with mercy, and
mercifull workes: hee filleth with good things thy desire, and like an eagle reneweth thy youth: hee hath not chastized mee according to my sinnes, nor inflicted on mee that punishment, that my iniquities deserued: as farre as the east is distant from the west, so fare hath hee put from mee all my Impieties: as the father hath compassion of his children, so our lord hath compassion of those that feare him, for hee well knoweth our weakenesse, and the masse wherof we were formed.O God of my soule, if the mercies are so greate that thou hast donne mee, vvhat shall I doe not to hee behinde kande in thankes giuings. I desire to pro∣cure vvith thy Aide, that vvhich thou hast begun in mee by thy mercy: and seeing thou hast pardoned my sinnes, I vvill neuer more retourne vnto them. Seeing thou hast deliuered mee from deathe, I vvill not againe subiect myselfe thereunto; seeing thou hast crovvned mee vvith morcies, I vvill giue thee the glory of all my crovvnes. Adde o Lord, this mercy to the former, to fill my desire vvith thy good things of heauen, giuing mee grace to oc∣coplish vvhat I offer vnto thee, chaunging my fortitude in such manner, that vvith greate feruour I may vvalke, runne, and flie, like a renevved eagle, vntill I obtaine the eternall crovvne of thy glorie. Amen.
After this forte, wee may make other canticles of praise, inuiting those sainctes that were greate sinners to gloriefy God for mee, for hauing pardoned my sinnes.
