Footnotes
(a)89:3
Turn not man away, etc: Suffer him not quite to perish from you, since you are pleased to call upon him to be converted to you.(Challoner)
(b)89:5 Either the watch of the night was considered to be nothing (meaningless, valueless), or it was uneventful (nothing to report on that watch), or even futile.(Conte)
(c)89:9
As a spider: As frail and weak as a spider’s web; and miserable withal, whilst like a spider we spend our bowels in weaving webs to catch flies.(Challoner)
(d)89:10
Mildness is come upon us, etc: God’s mildness corrects us; inasmuch as he deals kindly with us, in shortening the days of this miserable life; and so weaning our affections from all its transitory enjoyments, and teaching us true wisdom.(Challoner)
