Sprinkle me Lord with hyssop / and so shall be clean / thou shalt wash me / and then shall I be whither ⟨image 114⟩then snow.
Sprinkle me Lorde with hysope / and so shall be clene / thou shalt wash me / and then shall I be whitther ⟨image 114⟩then snowe.
Because Lord that thou hast loved the truth & hast opened unto me the unknown secretes of thy wisdom / I am well comforted and I trust that thou wilt not cast me out of thy favour / but thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop and so shall I be cleansed. Hyssop is a low herb / it is hot and of a good savour / which signifieth nothing else / but thy only son our lord Jesus Christ / which humbled him self unto death / even unto the death of the cross / which with the heat of his fervent charity loved us / and washed us from our since in his blood / which with the redolent savour of his benevolence and righteousness replenished the hole world.
Because Lorde that thou hast loued the truth & hast opened vnto me the vnknowne secretes of thy wysdome / I am well cō forted and I trust that thou wilt not cast me out of thy fauoure / but thou shalt sprinkle me with hysope and so shall I be clensed. Hysope is a lowe herbe / it is hote and of a good sauoure / which sygnifyeth nothynge els / but thy onlye sonne oure lorde Iesu Christ / which humbled hym selfe vnto deeth / euen vnto the deeth of the crosse / which with the heate of his feruent charite loued vs / and washed vs from oure synnes in his bloude / which with the redolent sauoure of his beneuolence and rightuousnes replenyshed the hole worlde.
