From whom, the faithfull Off-spring did encrease.

They, likewise, on a Rocke, their dwellings have,

As here you see; and, though the raging Wave,

Of dreadfull Seas, hath beaten, ever since,

Against the Fortresse of their strong defence,

Yet, still it stands; and, safe, it shall abide,

Ev'n in the midst of all their foming pride.

Vpon this Rocke so place me, oh my God!

That, whatsoever Tempests bee abroad,

I may not feare the fury of my Foe;
