- 3
- My soule also is greatly troubled: but O God howe long [shall I be in this case?]
- 4

- 5
- For in death no man remembreth thee: and in the graue who can acknowledge thee?
- 6
- I am weerie of my groning: I washe my bed euery nyght, and I water my coutche with my teares.
- 7
- Mine eye is almost put out through griefe: and worne out through all mine enemies.
- 8
- Away from me all workers of iniquitie: for God hath hearde the voyce of my weeping.
- 9
- God hath hearde my petition: God wyll receaue my prayer.
- 10
- All myne enemies shalbe confounded and sore vexed: they shalbe turned backe, they shalbe put to shame sodainlye.
