If even to seek the Lord be joy, what will it be to find him? Seek
me, O Lord, that I may be found by thee!

Ps. CX.

V. 2.--The LORD SHALL SEND THE ROD OF THY POWER OUT OF SION; (saying)
RULE, &c.

V. 3. Understand--"Thy people shall offer themselves willingly in
the day of conflict in holy clothing, in their best array, in their
best arms and accoutrements. As the dew from the womb of the
morning, in number and brightness like dew-drops, so shall be thy
youth, or the youth of thee, the young volunteer warriors."

V. 5. "He shall shake," concuss, concutiet reges die irae suae.

V. 6. For "smite in sunder, or wound the heads;" some word answering
to the Latin conquassare.

V. 7. For "therefore," translate "then shall he lift up his head
again;" that is, as a man languid and sinking from thirst and fatigue
after refreshment.

N.B.--I see no poetic discrepancy between vv. 1 and 5.

Ps. CXVIII.
