  1. Lord, who createdst man in wealth and store,
  2. Though foolishly he lost the same,
  3. Decaying more and more,
  4. Till he became
  5. Most poore:
  6. With thee
  7. O let me rise
  8. As larks, harmoniously,
  9. And sing this day thy victories:
  10. Then shall the fall further the flight in me.
  11.  
  12. My tender age in sorrow did beginne:
  13. And still with sicknesses and shame
  14. Thou didst so punish sinne,
  15. That I became
  16. Most thinne.
  17. With thee
  18. Let me combine,
  19. And feel this day thy victorie:
  20. For, if I imp my wing on thine,
  21. Affliction shall advance the flight in me.
