And thei that ledden awei vs seiden; Synge ye to vs an ympne of the songis of Syon.[4]Hou schulen we singe a songe of the Lord; in an alien lond?[5]If Y foryete thee, Jerusalem; my riyt hond be youun to foryeting.[6]Mi tunge cleue to my chekis; if Y bithenke not on thee. If Y purposide not of thee, Jerusalem; in the bigynnyng of my gladnesse.[7]Lord, haue thou mynde on the sones of Edom; for the dai of Jerusalem.
