My
heart is
inditing a
good matter: I
speak of the things which I have
made touching the
king: my
tongue is the
pen of a
ready writer.

Thou art
fairer than the
children of
men: grace is
poured into thy
lips: therefore
God hath
blessed thee for
ever.

Gird thy

And in thy

teach thee terrible
things.

Thine

Thy

right sceptre.

Thou

God, thy

anointed thee with the

gladness above thy

All thy

glad.
