1 A Potter does prepare his Clay, Then does the Vessel make, So thou prepares thy work, O Lord, Which thou dost undertake.
2 The Earth thou didst, O Lord, form first, Of which we formed were, Thou didst project also before, What Image we should bear.
3 A Potter divers Vessels makes, Which of different sizes are, Some of one form, and others do Another fashion bare.
3 A Potter divers Vessels makes, VVhich of different sizes are, Some of one form, and others do Another fashion bare.
4 So thou hast different Vessels too, Some noble and some base, Some curiously are wrought within, Adorned with thy Grace.
