Psalms131:2

Verſ. 2 Surely I have behaved] Heb. If I have not, &c. a deep aſſeveration,Si non comp[illegible: 1 letter] ſui & ſedavi. ſuch as hath the force of an oath.

And quieted my ſelf] Heb. Stilled or made ſilent my ſoul; chiding it when diſtempered or noiſefull, as the Mother doth her weanling.

As a child that is weaned of his Mother] Who neither thinketh great things of himſelf, nor ſeeketh great things for himſelf but is lowly and fellowly, Mat. 18.1. innocent, and ignoſcent, taking what his Mother giveth him, and reſting in her love.

My ſoul is even as a weaned child] Who will not bee drawn to ſuch again, though never ſo fair and full-ſtrutting a breaſt: So nor David, the worlds dugs.
