English text

Lord in thy wrath correct me not,

nor in thy furie vexe,

give teares, give grace, give penitence,

unto my sinfull sexe,

for that the arrowes of thy wrath,

are fixed in my hart,

and thou hast layd thine hand on me,

for my most just deseart.

Anonymous metrical version of Psalm 38: 1-2
