OXFORD SELECTION.

PSALM 1.

How blest are they who ne'er consent
By ill advice to walk;
Nor stand in sinners' ways, nor sit
Where men profanely talk :

But make the perfect law of God
Their business and delight;
Devoutly read therein by day,
And meditate by night.

Like some fair tree, which, fed by streams,
With timely fruit does bend;

They still shall flourish, and success
All their designs attend.
