2 By our great sins which grievous are▪ In his most blessed sight, On us therefore as Giants do, Does he break forth with might.
3 As if he would to pieces tear Such, whom his Soul doth love, Yet in his Heart affections dear, Toward us then does move.

5 And crucifie us to the world, And to each earthly thing, ⟨p. 21⟩
