Both lay me down and sleep  
For thou alone dost keep  
Me safe where ere I lie

As in a rocky Cell  
Thou Lord alone in safety mak'st me dwell.  
PSAL. V. Aug. 12.1653.  
JEHOVAH to my words give ear  
My meditation waigh  
The voyce of my complaining hear  
My King and God for unto thee I pray.  
Jehovah thou my early voyce  
Shalt in the morning hear  
Ith'morning I to thee with choyce  
Will rank my Prayers, and watch till thou appear.  
For thou art not a God that takes  
In wickedness delight  
10  
Evil with thee no biding makes  
Fools or mad men stand not within thy sight.  
All workers of iniquity  
Thou wilt destroy that speak a ly
