From the Third Set [of ... madrigals], London, 1610. A psalm setting probably intended for private devotion rather than church use. The text is closely akin, but not identical, to the translation of the Geneva bible. This edition is offered with the separate string (viol consort) parts and also with a keyboard reduction thereof.
Lyrics: Psalm 51: 11-15

Turn thy face from my wickedness, O Lord,
and put out all my misdeeds.
Make me a clean heart, O God,
and renew a right spirit within me.
Cast me not away from thy presence,
and take not thy holy spirit from me.
Give me the comfort of thy help again,
and stablish me with thy free spirit.
Then shall I teach thy ways unto the wicked,
and sinners shall be converted unto the Lord.
Amen.
