"  Bless  her  with  all  your
heart :  for  the  earth  is  full
of  her  mercy.  Glory,  &c."


Psalm  iii.
"Domina  quid  multipli-
cati  sunt  qui  tribulant  me :
in  tempestate  tua  perse-
queris  et  dissipabis  eos.
"  Dissolve  colligationes
impietatis  nostrae  :  tolle  fas-
ciculos  peccatorum  nostro-
rum.
"Miserere  mei  Domina  et
sana  infirmitatem  meam  :
tolle  dolorem  et  angustiam
cordis  mei.
"  Ne  tradas  me  manibus
inimicorum  meorum  :  et  in
die  mortis  mese  conforta
animam  meam.
"  Deduc  me  ad  portam
salutis  :  et  spiritum  meum
redde  factor!  et  creatori
meo.  Gloria  Patri,  &c."


"  Lady,  how  are  they  in-
creased that  trouble  me  :
in  thy  wrath  shalt  thou  per-
secute and  scatter  them.
"  Loosen  the  bonds  of  our
iniquity :  remove  the  burden
of  our  sins.
"Have  mercy  upon  me,
O  Lady,  and  heal  my  infir-
mity :  take  away  the  pain
and  anguish  of  my  heart.
"  Deliver  me  not  over
unto  my  enemies  :  but
support  my  soul  in  the  day
of  my  death.
"  Conduct  me  to  the  gate
of  salvation :  and  restore
my  breath  to  him  who  hath
created  and  made  me.
Glory,  &c."


Psalm  iv.
"  Cum  invocarem  exau-
disti  me  Domina :  et  e  sub-
limi  solio  tuo,  mei  dignata
es  recordari.
"  A  rugientibus  prsepara-
tis  ad  escam  :  et  de  manibus
quserentium  me,,  liberabit
me  gratia  tua.
"Thou  hast  heard  me
when  I  called,  O  Lady:  and
from  thy  throne  on  high
thou  hast  vouchsafed  to  re-
member me.
"  From  roaring  [lions]
ready  to  devour  me  :  and
from  the  hands  of  those
that  seek  me,  thy  grace  shall
deliver  me.
