Psalms64:4

Verſ. 4. That they may ſh[illegible: 2 letters]t in [illegible: 1 word] the perfect] Innocency and integrity is [illegible: 1 word] target againſt calumny; but every Z[illegible: 1 letter]pyr[illegible: 1 letter] ſhall be ſure of his [illegible: 1 span] wrong, will ſhoot him down if hee can.

Suddenly do they ſhoot at him] As the hunter when he lyeth hid in a buſh; or as when hedges are lined, as they call it, with muskettiers, which gall and kill.

And feel not] They are not at all touched either with reverence toward God, or reſpect to man, but are utterly debauched, they ride on without reigns, &c. There is an elegancy in the originall, that cannot be engliſhed.
