3My soule is also sore vexed: but thou, O Lord, how long? 4Returne, O Lord, deliuer my soule: oh saue mee, for thy mercies sake. 5For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the graue who shall giue thee thankes? 6I am weary with my groning, all the night make I my bed to swim: I water my couch with my teares. 7Mine eie is consumed because of griefe; it waxeth olde because of all mine enemies.
