¹ When God shall cause them of Sion that were led into captiuitie for to returne: we shalbe as men that dreamed.² Then shall our mouth be filled with a laughter: and our tongue with a ioyfull noyse. Then shall suche as be amongst the Heathen say: God hath brought great thinges to passe, that he myght do for them.³ God hath brought great thinges to passe for vs: we be made merie.

⁴ Make vs O God that be led into captiuitie: for to returne as riuers into the south.⁵ They that sowe in teares: shall reape in ioy.⁶ He that goeth foorth on his way, and wepyng beareth pretious seede: shall doubtlesse returning, come againe with a ioyfull noyse, bryngyng his sheaues with hym.
