Third PART. GIMEL

In Kindness, with thy Servant deal; That I may live, and keep thy Word. Open mine Eyes; that I may see, The Wonders which thy Laws afford. I'm but a Stranger, on the Earth; Hide not thy wise Commands from me. My Soul doth faint, with strong Desire, Still with thy Judgments to agree. The Proud thou hast rebuk'd; they're curs'd, Who from thy Precepts boldly swerv'd. Shame, and Contempt, remove from me; Thy Testimonies I observ'd. Tho' Princes met, and me defam'd; Thy Statutes I my Study make. Thy Records are my chief Delight: Them for my Counsellors I take.
