¶ The .xlv. Psalme. ERVCTAVIT COR MEVM. To hym that excelleth amonge the lylies, an instruccion of the chyldr&ebar; of Corah, a songe of loue.

A   Mi hert is endytyng of a good matter I speake of the thynges, whych I haue made vnto the kyng: My tong is the penne of a ready wryter. &club; Thou art fayrer then the chyldren of men, full of grace are thy lyppes, because God hath blessed the for euer. Gyrde the &wt; thy swerde vpon thy thygh (O thou most myghtye) accordyng to thy worshipe ∧ renowne. Good lucke haue thou &wt; thine honour, ryde on because of the word of treuth, of mekenesse ∧ righteousnes: and thy ryght hande shall teach the terrible thynges. B   Thy arowes are very sharpe, ∧ the people shalbe subdued vnto the, euen in the myddest amonge the kynges enemyes.

noteThy seate (O God) endureth for euer: the scepter of thy kyngdome is a ryght scepter: Thou hast loued ryghteousnesse, and hated iniquite: wherfore God (eu&ebar; thy God) hath anoynted the wyth the oyle of gladnes aboue thy felowes. All thy garmentes smell of myrre, Aloes and Cassia, out of the yuerye palaces, wher by they haue made the glad. Kynges daughters were among thy honorable wem&ebar;: vpon thy ryght hande dyd stande þe; quene in a vesture of gold (Wrought about wyth dyuerse colours.) Herk&ebar; (O daughter) C    and consydre: enclyne thyne eare: forget also thine awne people, ∧ thy fathers house. So shall the kyng haue pleasure in thy bewtye, for he is thy Lorde (God) ∧ worshype thou hym. And þe; daughter of Tire shall be there &wt; a gyfte, lyke as the ryche also amonge the people shall make theyr supplicacyon before the. The kynges daughter is all gloryous wythin, her clothyng is of wrought golde.

She shalbe brought vnto the king in rayment of nedle worke: the virgins þt; be hyr felowes, shall beare hir company, and shalbe brought vnto the. Wyth ioye ∧ gladnesse shall they be brought, ∧ shall entre into the kynges palace. In steade of thy fathers þu; shalt haue chyldren, whom thou mayest make prynces in all lande. I wyll remembre thy name from one generacyon to another: therfore shall the people geue thankes vnto the, worlde wythout ende.
