from one another as plainly shew there is no truth nor certainty to be found for us but only in our return to them again I shall not here enquire into the Goodness of the Consequence but must needs say I could wish there were not too much Truth and scandal in the Premises And who can tell whether since any lesser Judgements have been ineffectual to reclaim us God may not at last punish us with this Blindness and whilst we refuse to submit to the easie and lawful power of his Church and his Anointed bring us once more under the intolerable Yoke of that usurped authority from whose Slavery both our Country and our Consciences are now so happily asserted This I am sure we have too much deserved and may therefore justly have but too great Cause to fear Only my hope is that whatever our own demerits are yet the Innocence of our Church shall still provoke God's providence to defend her And that our deliverance as at this time from our Enemies shall always disappoint such fatal expectations and convince them that though we have sinned yet are we his People That he chastises us as Children not punishes us as his Enemies and is still our God though angry and provoked How great is the demonstration of his mercy and loving-kindness that we even now continue a Church and People as at this day What Miracles did he work to turn again the Captivity of our Zion and deliver both us and our King from those Usurpers that so long had triumphed over both Has not the Almighty shewn himself in our defence who but so lately has delivered us both from Popish and Fanatick Conspiracies Let them ask where is their God that have not known by what singular and unexspected means these designs were both Discover'd and Disappointed And though it pleases God still to leave these men like the Canaanites in the Land to try and to prove us and which indeed but too much fulfil their character of being scourges to our sides and thornes in our Eyes Yet has he set bounds to their designs which they have not been able to pass and which we trust they never shall exceed to ruine and destroy us Yet since both our peace and security are still in such danger through their rage and their devices Let us endeavour not less by our Piety than our Policies to countermine them Let us engage the Assistance of Heaven by the excellency of our Lives as well as the justice of our Cause to oppose their attempts Let us exceed them as much in the Sincerity of our Righteousness as they have done all others in the outward Pretences and Hypocrisie of theirs Let us keep this day the fast which the Lord hath chosen to break the bonds of wickedness to have pity on the distressed and to execute judgement and justice in the gates Let us turn unto the Lord our God with all our hearts with weeping and with fasting and with mourning and let us rent our hearts and not our garments and let us say Spare thy People O Lord and give not thine Heritage to reproach that the Heathen should rule over them wherefore should they say among the people Where is their God Then will the Lord be jealous for his People and awake for his Inheritance He will restore us our Judges as at the first and our Councellours as at the beginning Zion shall be redeemed with judgment and her converts with righteousness They shall be ashamed and confounded that seek her destruction but for his Church and his Anointed they shall be preserved for evermore Which God of his Infinite mercy grant for his dear Son Jesus Christ's Sake Amen Books sold by Moses Pitt at the Angel in St. Paul's Church-Yard In FOLIO BIble for Churches with Cronology and an Index The English Atlas Vol. 1st containing the description of the North-Pole as also Muscovy Poland Sweden and Denmark The Second Vol. of the Atlas containing half the Empire of Germany The third Vol. containing the other half of the Empire of Germany The fourth Vol. containing the 17 Provinces Catalogus Impressorum Librorum Bibliothecae Bodleianae in Acad.
