will_v but_o come_v up_o to_o the_o outward_a fast_a of_o the_o hypocrite_n we_o may_v have_v then_o some_o hope_v that_o desolate_v judgement_n and_o evil_n may_v at_o lest_o be_v put_v off_o during_o our_o day_n and_o will_v not_o this_o be_v wonderful_a mercy_n and_o not_o dear_o buy_v though_o we_o lie_v in_o sackcloth_n and_o ash_n not_o only_o once_o a_o month_n but_o once_o a_o week_n for_o half_a a_o year_n together_o but_o if_o i_o shall_v not_o prevail_v with_o the_o generality_n to_o be_v serious_a and_o diligent_a in_o this_o work_n sure_o i_o may_v hope_v to_o do_v so_o with_o all_o the_o true_o pious_a and_o religious_a and_o i_o hope_v notwithstanding_o the_o general_a corruption_n and_o wickedness_n in_o the_o land_n there_o be_v such_o a_o number_n of_o these_o that_o if_o they_o will_v but_o diligent_o and_o constant_o in_o public_a and_o private_a cry_n mighty_o to_o god_n under_o a_o due_a sense_n of_o their_o own_o and_o the_o public_a sin_n and_o danger_n we_o may_v yet_o have_v hope_n of_o the_o lengthen_v out_o of_o our_o tranquillity_n and_o divert_v fear_v judgement_n if_o they_o will_v moses_n like_v constant_o hold_v up_o the_o hand_n of_o prayer_n and_o furnish_v themselves_o with_o such_o consideration_n and_o argument_n which_o like_o aaron_n and_o hur_z may_v help_v and_o support_v they_o in_o this_o work_n we_o may_v hope_v that_o our_o joshua_n shall_v yet_o prevail_v further_o against_o the_o amalekite_n god_n forbid_v that_o you_o shall_v to_o your_o other_o sin_n add_v this_o sin_n against_o the_o lord_n in_o cease_v to_o pray_v or_o in_o grow_v but_o cold_a and_o formal_a in_o this_o work_n many_o good_a people_n be_v apt_a to_o complain_v when_o judgement_n be_v threaten_v or_o inflict_v alas_o how_o can_v we_o expect_v better_o when_o there_o be_v so_o much_o wickedness_n and_o debauchery_n in_o the_o nation_n whereas_o they_o little_o consider_v that_o it_o may_v be_v as_o true_o lay_v at_o another_o door_n namely_o the_o neglect_n of_o that_o fervent_a prayer_n in_o themselves_o which_o may_v at_o least_o have_v stave_v off_o judgement_n long_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o people_n that_o be_v more_o peculiar_o concern_v in_o this_o work_n 1._o all_o pious_a minister_n it_o be_v their_o proper_a profess_a office_n to_o pray_v and_o to_o be_v example_n and_o encouragement_n to_o other_o 2._o all_o pious_a and_o devout_a woman_n both_o which_o be_v by_o the_o law_n exempt_v from_o give_v personal_a assistance_n to_o the_o war_n and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n have_v more_o time_n and_o leisure_n for_o set_v and_o solemn_a time_n of_o prayer_n both_o public_a and_o private_a than_o other_o and_o herein_o they_o may_v do_v as_o much_o nay_o more_o service_n in_o their_o closet_n than_o other_o do_v in_o the_o field_n i_o remember_v one_o of_o the_o powder_n traitor_n in_o his_o letter_n to_o the_o lord_n mounteagle_n by_o which_o the_o plot_n be_v defeat_v have_v this_o expression_n they_o shall_v receive_v a_o great_a blow_v this_o parliament_n and_o not_o know_v from_o who_o bless_a be_v god_n this_o prophet_n be_v prove_v a_o liar_n but_o i_o wish_v at_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o this_o present_a year_n it_o may_v be_v say_v in_o truth_n concern_v our_o enemy_n they_o have_v receive_v a_o great_a blow_n and_o know_v not_o who_o have_v do_v it_o namely_o by_o the_o prayer_n of_o devout_a christian_n which_o may_v right_o be_v term_v white_a gunpowder_n which_o they_o say_v kill_v without_o make_v a_o noise_n or_o report_n therefore_o i_o
