Psalm 114 (In exitu Israel)

At what tyme Jacobs race did leave of Egipt take,
And Egipts barbrous folk forsake,
Then, then, our God, our king, elected Jacobs race
His temple there and throne to place.
The sea beheld and fledd: Jordan with swift returne
To twyned spring his streames did turne;
The mountaines bounded soe, as fedd in fruitful! ground
The fleezed rammes doe frisking bound,
The hillocks capreold soe, as wanton by their dammes
We capreoll see the lusty lambes.
O sea, why didst thou fly? Jordan, with swift returne
To twyned spring what made thee turne?
Mountaines, why bounded ye, as fedd in fruitfull ground
The fleezed rammes doe frisking bound?
Hillocks, why capreold ye, as wanton by their dammes
We capreoll see the lusty lambes?
Nay you, and Earth with you, quake ever at the sight
Of God Jehova, Jacobs might,
Who in the hardest rocks makes standing waters grow,
And purling springs from flints to flow.
