from the Coffee-House to the Tavern and from the Tavern to the Coffee-House which hath been the Debauchery of this Age and so bring them into this Dilemma to discourse of those Things neither pleasing to God nor the King nor themselves but their Prejudice The Profanation of the Sabbath-Day is commonly discourst of in this place God forgive me for not observing it as I should I pray God those that follow me may be more careful of their Duty to God and Man for the good of themselves their Souls and their Families those that are young especially and coming up that they may chiefly mind their Concerns for Eternity and that they would pay their Duty and Homage to the King and those that God has set over them and not neglect that great Command to pray for the King and all that are in Authority Being asked if they had any thing more to say They said No. Mr. Ordinary then prayed with them and sung a Psalm and then they desired to pray themselves which was granted Captain Walcot's Prayer O Lord our God Thou art the God of present help in time of Trouble a God that hast promised to be with thy People in the Fire and in the Water O Lord we pray thee that thou wilt afford thy presence to thy poor suffering Servants at this time that thou wilt enable us to pray with Faith to trust in thee to be in expectation and hope of Mercy from thee O Lord thy Servant that speaketh doth confess that the Iniquities at his heets have justly overtaken him that just and righteous art thou in all thy Judgments that he hath reason to bear thy Indignation because he hath sinned O Lord we beg even for thy Son Christ Jesus's sake that our sins may not be brought to our remembrance in order to our despondency or discouragement or our despairing in thy Mercy but rather O Lord in order to an assurance that our great God hath pardoned and forgiven them in the Blood of his Son O do thou hath each of our Souls in that Fountain set open for Sin and for Vncleanness Give us O Lord inward Spiritual strength from thy self and give us cause to bless thy Name for inward supporting Graces for inward assistances O let us find an increase of spiritual strongth let us be assured that our Sins are done away and let us also be assured that our Names are written in the Book of Life and let it be such an assurance as may be matter of joy and rejoycing to our Souls O do thou enable every one of us from the inward evidence of thy Spirit to say with thy Servant Job That we know and are assured that our Redeemer lives O do thou give us such an assurance of an Interest in thee that we may be inabled in deed in reality and in truth to say that we have run our race and we have finished our course with Joy O let us now receive the fruit of those many Petitions that we have put up unto thee O let us now find the Spirit influencing our Hearts to a yielding patience and a thorow subjection to the Will of God let us find thy Spirit assuring us that we are thine O let us have stronger Evidences of thy Love stronger Testimonies of thy Affection O give us some inward Tastes of those heavenly Joys that we hope through the Mercy of Jesus Christ in a little time to have a more full Fruition of O Lord do thou speak peace to every one of our Consciences enable us to take hold of thy Strength that thou may'st make Peace with us and let us not be discouraged O Lord since we have a High-Priest that can be touched with our Infirmities let us with Boldness have Access to the Throne of Grace that we may obtain Mercy and Grace to help in time of need O take away the Sting and Terror that is in Death in any one of us by assuring us of our Interest in thee by assuring us that our Names are recorded in the Book of Life tho we lye under a Sentence of Death from Man we beg that we may have a Sentence of Life eternal from our God and tho we meet thee O Lord in a Field of Blood we beg that thou wilt come to meet with us in a Field of Mercy O Lord extend thy Mercy thou Lord whose Compassions faileth not cause the Bowels of thy tender pity to yearn with Compassion towards us enable every one of us O Lord to die believing in Jesus Christ to die hoping in his Mercy to die relying upon him for Justification for Sanctification and for Adoption O Lord though we have been Prodigals we desire to return to our Fathers House where there is Bread enough O enable us to come unto thee as Children to their Parents O let our Prayers be offer'd with so much Fervour in Christ Jesus that thou may'st think it reasonable to assure us of thy Love O let the Intercession of Jesus Christ be accepted O Lord we beg that he may be our Advocate if our Advocate be our Judge certainly we cannot miscarry O let Jesus Christ be the Hope of every one of our Souls and Lord let not our Hope be like that of the Hypocrite but let our Faith be built upon the Rock of Ages and let us not fail from the apprehension of Affliction and Punishment from men Yet O Lord do thou so order our Hearts and our Spirits aright that thou may'st be the Lot of our Inheritance and our Portion for ever O do thou interest us in thy self Lord carry on thy own Work We desire to come unto thee that we may have life Lord help us Lord put to thy helping Hand Lord teach us truly to leave no Sin unrepented of in any one of our Hearts And O Lord we beg that with us thou wilt give us leave to recommend unto thy Care our poor Wives and Children Thou hast promised to be the Father of the Fatherless and the Husband of the Widdow and thou hast commanded us to cast the Care of them upon thee O do thou make Provision for them deal kindly with them imprint thy own Image upon them and enable them to bear this severe stroke with Patience O Lord stand by and support them let their Ways be found so pleasing and acceptable unto thee that thou may'st think it reasonable to make all their Enemies at Peace Lord interest them in thy Love and do thou favour them with thy Mercies and loving Kindnesses O Lord we also beseech thee in the behalf of these poor Kingdoms wherein we are that thou wilt be merciful to them prevent Divisions among them heal all their Breaches compose their Differences make all that are thine of one Heart and Mind in the things of thee our God And Lord if it be thy Will do thou rule in the Heart of the King that he may rule and reign for thee and for the good of thy Church and
