#Psalmtweet #Psalter 39:14

Limited similitude meditating ...

It's hard not to think of Maurice Greene -- Lord let me know mine end ...

בְּטֶ֖רֶם אֵלֵ֣ךְ וְאֵינֶֽנִּי
14 Look at me and I will smile,
ere I walk off and there is no me.

Could a mid 18th C composer make something of the melodic material here?
