We shall take a quotation from his version of the 104th psalm.

  My soul the Lord for ever bless: 
    O God! thy greatness all confess;
  Whom majesty and honour vest,
    In robes of light eternal drest.

  He heaven made his canopy;
    His chambers in the waters lye: 
  His chariot is the cloudy storm,
    And on the wings of wind is born.

  He spirits makes his angels quire,
    His ministers a flaming fire. 
  He so did earth’s foundations cast,
    It might remain for ever fast: 

  Then cloath’d it with the spacious deep,
    Whose wave out-swells the mountains steep. 
  At thy rebuke the waters fled,
    And hid their thunder-frighted head.

  They from the mountains streaming flow,
    And down into the vallies go: 
  Then to their liquid center hast,
    Where their collected floods are cast.
