Psalms84:2

Verſ. 2. My ſoul longeth] As ſhe did, who ſaid, Give mee Children or elſe I dye. His ſoul once longed for the waters of the well of Bethlehem, but not ſo earneſtly as now to draw waters with joy out of thoſe wells of ſalvation.

My heart and my fleſh] Ut ſit ſanctitus in corde, & ſanitas in corpore. And for obtaining of this, whole David cryeth aloud, as a child when hungry cryeth every whit of him, hands, feet, face, all cry; and then the Mother flings by all, then ſhe flyes and out-runs her ſelf: So here; The deſires of the Righteous ſhall be ſatisfied, Prov. 10.24.
