Verse 1, 2.

¹O Lord, through my manifold sins and provocations I have brought my self into great distresses. Mine Iniquities are always before me, and I am ready to be overwhelmed with them, as with a flood of waters, for they have brought me into depths, wherein I am ready to be swallowed up. But yet although my distress be great and perplexing; I do not, I dare not utterly despond and cast away all hopes of relief or recovery. Nor do I seek unto any other remedy, way or means of relief, but I apply my self to thee Jehovah, to thee alone. And in this my Application unto thee, the greatness and urgency of my troubles makes my soul urgent, earnest, and pressing in my supplications. Whilst I have no rest, I can give thee no rest; Oh therefore attend and hearken unto the voice of my crying and supplications.
