-<poem>
-O Lord how are my foes increast,
-which vexe me more and more!
-they kill my heart, when as they say,
-God can him not restore.
-But thou O Lord art my defence,
-when I am hard bested,
-my worship and mine honour both,
-and thou holdst vp my head.
-Then with my voice vnto the Lord
-I did both call and cry:
-And he out of his holy hill
-did heare me by and by.
-I laid me downe and quietly
-I slept and rose againe:
-For why? I know assuredly,
-the Lord wil me sustaine.
-If ten thousand had hem’d me in,
-I could not be afraid:
-For thou art still my Lord my God,
-my Sauiour and my aid.
-Rise vp therefore, saue me my God,
-for now to thee I call:
-For thou hast broke the cheekes & teeth
-of these wicked men all.
-Saluation only doth belong
-to thee O Lord aboue:
-Thou dost bestow vpon thy folke
-thy blessing and thy loue.
