Matthew 15:22: A woman of Canaan came out of the same, &c

The image of a sinner see,
Who pierced with his own misery
Doth from his home depart,
The' occasions of his sin forsakes,
Jesus his only refuge makes,
And prays with all his heart.

A sinner's penitential prayer
Doth humbly short his wants declare,
With faith in David's Son:
Nothing prescribes to God most high.
But mercy still persists to cry,
And trusts in that alone.
