1 A gradual Canticle. BVT that our Lord was in vs, let Israel now say:
2 but that our Lord was in vs, When men rose vp against vs,
3 perhaps they had swalowed vs aliue: When their furie was angrie against vs,
4 perhaps water had swalowed vs.
5 Our soule hath passed through a torrent: perhaps our soule had passed through an intolerable water.
6 Blessed be our Lord which hath not geuen vs, for a pray to their teeth.
7 Our soule as a sparow is deliuered from the snare of the fowlers: The snare is broken, and we are deliuered.
8 Our helpe is in the name of our Lord, who made heauen and earth.
