1
The pride of the height, the clear firmament, the beauty of heaven, with his glorious shew;
2
The sun when it appeareth, declaring at his rising a marvellous instrument, the work of the most High:
3
At noon it parcheth the country, and who can abide the burning heat thereof?
4
A man blowing a furnace is in works of heat, but the sun burneth the mountains three times more; breathing out fiery vapours, and sending forth bright beams, it dimmeth the eyes.
5
Great is the Lord that made it; and at his commandment runneth hastily.
