1 By the waters of Babylon we sat downe there: also we wept when we remembred Sion. VP

2 We hanged our harpes on the Salon trees: in the mydst of it. VP

3 For there they that led vs away captiue required of vs some matter of a song: and for our waylynges myrth, saying sing vs one of the songes of Sion. VP

4 He aunswered howe can we sing one of the songes of God: in another lande besides our owne? VP

5 If I forget thee O Hierusalem: let my right hande forget her cunning. VP

6 Let my tongue cleaue to the roofe of my mouth, if I do not remember thee: yea if I preferre not thee O Hierusalem aboue my most myrth. VP

7 Remember the chyldren of Edom in the day of Hierusalem: they sayde, downe with it, downe with it, euen to the grounde. VP

8 O daughter of Babylon who must lye wasted: happy shall he be that rewardeth thee as thou hast serued vs. VP

9 Blessed shall he be: that taketh & throweth thy litle children against the stone. VP
