Shirikisha

Ye see then how a righteous God doth Righteousness embrace, And unto just and upright men shews forth his pleasant face.

But he that in his temple is most holy and most high, And in the heavens hath his seat of royal Majesty. The poor and simple man’s estate considereth in his mind, And searcheth out full narrowly the manners of mankind

And with a cheerful countenance the righteous man will use: But in his Heart he doth abhor all such as mischief muse.

Of wordly hope all stays were shrunk, and clearly brought to nought: Alas, the just and righteous man, what evil hath he wrought?

In God the Lord I put my trust, why say ye to my Soul, Unto the mountain swiftly flie, as doth the winged Fowl.
