Psalme CXXXIV

VI. Sir Philip Sidney and the Countess of Pembroke

Ecce nunc.

YOU that Jehova’s servants are,

Whose carefull watch, whose watchfull care

Within his house are spent;

Say thus with one assent,

Jehova’s name be praised!

Then let your handes be raised

To holiest place,

Where holiest grace

Doth ay

Remaine;

And say

Againe,

Jehova’s name be praised!

Say last unto the company,

Who tarrying make

Their leave to take,

All blessings you accompany,

From him in plenty showered,

Whom Sion holds embowered,

Who heav’n and earth of nought hath raised!
