The Psalmes of David in Meeter.
Beatus vir. Psal. i. [Blessed is the man. Psalm 1.] T.S. [Thomas Sternhold]
This Psalme is set first as a preface, to exhort al
godly men to studie and meditate the heavenly
wisedome: for they be blessed that do so: but the
wicked contemners thereof at length shall come
to misery.
The man is blest that hath not bent,
- to wicked men read his eare:
Nor led his life as sinners doe,
- nor sate in scorners chaire.
2. But in the law of God the Lord,
- doth set his whole delight:
And in that law doth exercise
- himselfe both day and night.
3 He shall be like the tree that groweth
- fast by the rivers side:
Which bringeth forth most pleasant fruit
- in her due time and tide.
Whose leafe shall never fade nor fall,
- but flourish still and stand:
Even so all things shall prosper well
- that this man takes in hand.
