Dont vient cela, Seigneur, je te supply,
Que loing de nous te tiens, les yeulx couverts ?
Te caches tu, pour nous mectre en oubly ?
Mesmes au temps, qui est dur, et divers ?
Par leur orgueil sont ardants les pervers
A tourmenter l'humble, qui peu se prise:
Fais que sur eulx tombe leur entreprise.

(Pseaume 10, Cl. Marot, first stanza only)
