and loude instruments of Musicke, magnified the Lord, 1. Chron. 16.42. The Theame and Subiect of it is various, and mixt; not set mournefully to straines of penitence or mortality (as in others of his sacred Anthems ) but to Aiers of more spirit and life, such as would sublimate and intraunce the Deuotion of the Hearer. The former part whereof is key'd high, very high, and reacheth God, and his powerfull mercies; the other tun'd lower, to Man, and toucheth on his frailties and weake deportment. That which concernes his God is (as 'twere) the plaine-song; the ground and burden of it graue, and sober, but full of maiesty, My soule watteth vpon God, He is the Rocke of my Saluation and defence, at the second verse; |

The Theme and Subject of it is various, and mixed; not Set mournfully to strains of penitence or mortality (as in Others of his sacred Anthems) but to Heirs of more Spirit and life, such as would sublimate and intrance the Devotion of the Hearer.
