He blessed is who neither loosely treads To which sweet springs of water neighbors be; Such blessings shall not wicked wretches see, SIR PHILIP SIDNEY 73 PSALM IV Great God of righteousness and love, I know the Lord hath set apart O stand in awe before His face, Let righteousness like incense rise For those who grope in darkest night, Thou art my life, my light, my joy; I'll rest and sleep in peace. MRS. FOLLEN PSALM XIII 195 74 PSALM XIII Lord, how long, how long wilt Thou How long shall I seek a way From this maze of thoughts perplexed, And be graced by my disgracing? Hear, O Lord and God, my cries! Heavenly beams in them infusing— And too infinite to number, Lest my foes their boasting make: 66 'Spite of right, on him we trample "; And a pride in mischief take, Hastened by my sad example. |
