Call now, if there be any that will answer thee; and to which of the saints wilt thou turn?

Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as the clay; and wilt thou bring me into dust again?

Your remembrances are like unto ashes, your bodies to bodies of clay.

Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands.

His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground.

Behold, I am according to thy wish in God's stead: I also am formed out of the clay.

It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.
