My heart brings forth a goodly thing;
my words that I indite
Concern the King: my tongue�s a pen
of one that swift doth write.
Thou fairer art than sons of men:
into thy lips is store
Of grace infus�d; God therefore thee
hath bless�d for evermore.
O thou that art the mighty One,
thy sword gird on thy thigh;
Ev�n with thy glory excellent,
and with thy majesty.
For meekness, truth, and righteousness,
in state ride prosp�rously;
And thy right hand shall thee instruct
in things that fearful be.
Thine arrows sharply pierce the heart
of th� en�mies of the King;
And under thy subjection
the people down do bring.
For ever and for ever is,
O God, thy throne of might;
The sceptre of thy kingdom is
a sceptre that is right.
Thou lovest right, and hatest ill;
for God, thy God, most high,
Above thy fellows hath with th� oil
of joy anointed thee.
Of aloes, myrrh, and cassia,
a smell thy garments had,
Out of the iv�ry palaces,
whereby they made thee glad.
Among thy women honourable
kings� daughters were at hand:
Upon thy right hand did the queen
in gold of Ophir stand.
O daughter, hearken and regard,
and do thine ear incline;
Likewise forget thy father�s house,
and people that are thine.
Then of the King desir�d shall be
thy beauty veh�mently:
Because he is thy Lord, do thou
him worship rev�rently.
The daughter there of Tyre shall be
with gifts and off �rings great:
Those of the people that are rich
thy favour shall entreat.
Behold, the daughter of the King
all glorious is within;
And with embroideries of gold
her garments wrought have been.
She shall be brought unto the King
in robes with needle wrought;
Her fellow-virgins following
shall unto thee be brought.
They shall be brought with gladness great,
and mirth on ev�ry side,
Into the palace of the King,
and there they shall abide.
Instead of those thy fathers dear,
thy children thou may�st take,
And in all places of the earth
them noble princes make.
Thy name remember�d I will make
through ages all to be:
The people therefore evermore
shall praises give to thee.
