An elderly King David is depicted kneeling in prayer after having committed great sins. He has cast his harp and hat to the ground as an expression of humility and looks up to the sky to ask forgiveness. The text of Psalm 6 begins with the large decorated initial D and reads, \u201cDomine ne in furore tuo arguas me: neque in ira tua corripias me,\u201d or \u201cO Lord rebuke me not in thy indignation, nor chastise me in thy wrath.\u201d",
