into_o such_o complaint_n be_v these_o ah_o why_o be_v there_o not_o a_o million_o of_o those_o base_a and_o guilty_a wretch_n sacrifice_v for_o the_o preservation_n of_o one_o so_o dear_a and_o precious_a a_o life_n why_o do_v persecuter_n and_o the_o disturber_n of_o the_o public_a quiet_n prolong_v their_o day_n to_o be_v scourge_v of_o mankind_n whilst_o the_o delight_n of_o the_o world_n fly_v away_o with_o the_o swiftness_n of_o a_o shadow_n which_o vanish_v away_o and_o return_v no_o more_o let_v we_o learn_v o_o christian_n to_o make_v a_o right_a use_n or_o rather_o to_o make_v no_o use_n at_o all_o of_o that_o word_n which_o be_v so_o common_a among_o we_o it_o have_v be_v better_a otherwise_o to_o how_o many_o person_n do_v we_o apply_v this_o word_n if_o such_o a_o person_n die_v immediate_o we_o cry_v it_o have_v be_v better_a otherwise_o thou_o know_v o_o god_n and_o thou_o make_v we_o know_v that_o this_o be_v a_o great_a error_n whatsoever_o thou_o do_v be_v always_o best_a thy_o will_n be_v ever_o good_a and_o perfect_a grant_v then_o that_o we_o may_v acquiesce_v in_o it_o instruct_v we_o in_o the_o depth_n of_o thy_o wisdom_n and_o make_v we_o sensible_a of_o the_o justice_n of_o thy_o action_n that_o we_o may_v henceforth_o avoid_v such_o profane_a expression_n in_o the_o last_o place_n we_o ought_v to_o admire_v with_o the_o prophet_n the_o conduct_n of_o that_o god_n who_o be_v wonderful_a in_o counsel_n and_o excellent_a in_o work_v his_o providence_n do_v often_o set_v in_o order_n second_o cause_n for_o the_o production_n of_o effect_n which_o his_o eternal_a decree_n will_v bring_v forth_o in_o their_o due_a time_n and_o this_o order_n appear_v so_o natural_a to_o we_o that_o we_o can_v believe_v that_o he_o will_v change_v it_o for_o another_o but_o on_o a_o sudden_a we_o see_v this_o order_n reverse_v and_o those_o chain_n of_o second_o cause_n break_v to_o piece_n we_o be_v in_o a_o age_n of_o iron_n and_o of_o brass_n we_o live_v in_o the_o dregs_o of_o time_n a_o time_n in_o which_o the_o world_n and_o the_o church_n have_v need_n of_o great_a agent_n and_o example_n for_o the_o reformation_n both_o of_o doctrine_n and_o manner_n god_n seem_v to_o have_v unite_v the_o two_o wise_a most_o pious_a and_o most_o zealous_a person_n of_o our_o age_n to_o accomplish_v his_o work_n and_o make_v a_o new_a christian_a world_n the_o union_n of_o these_o two_o great_a soul_n appear_v to_o we_o like_o the_o conjunction_n of_o two_o great_a star_n which_o we_o expect_v shall_v have_v shed_v their_o influence_n on_o both_o side_n of_o the_o sea_n by_o make_v peace_n to_o spring_v out_o of_o the_o earth_n and_o righteousness_n to_o come_v down_o from_o heaven_n and_o indeed_o these_o effect_n be_v already_o produce_v in_o a_o very_a sensible_a manner_n already_o god_n have_v begin_v to_o fulfil_v our_o hope_n and_o accomplish_v his_o own_o design_n when_o lo_o by_o a_o unexpected_a stroke_n he_o have_v at_o last_o interrupt_v the_o course_n of_o those_o prosperity_n which_o that_o union_n can_v not_o fail_v to_o produce_v by_o this_o conduct_n god_n will_v teach_v we_o two_o thing_n the_o first_o be_v our_o own_o ignorance_n we_o believe_v that_o he_o will_v proceed_v in_o one_o method_n and_o we_o see_v that_o he_o have_v take_v another_o which_o ought_v to_o make_v we_o acknowledge_v our_o ignorance_n of_o the_o depth_n of_o his_o providence_n the_o other_o thing_n that_o god_n will_v teach_v we_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v always_o live_v in_o a_o entire_a and_o even_o in_o some_o measure_n in_o a_o immediate_a dependence_n on_o his_o will._n he_o will_v not_o have_v we_o to_o depend_v too_o much_o on_o humane_a mean_n he_o will_v give_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o his_o wisdom_n be_v infinite_a and_o that_o he_o have_v a_o thousand_o way_n to_o arrive_v at_o the_o same_o end_n he_o deprive_v we_o of_o person_n that_o seem_v to_o be_v most_o necessary_a for_o the_o execution_n of_o his_o design_n and_o yet_o he_o will_v not_o have_v we_o doubt_v of_o the_o accomplishment_n of_o they_o let_v we_o leave_v all_o to_o he_o for_o if_o he_o do_v not_o finish_v his_o work_n by_o this_o way_n he_o will_v certain_o do_v it_o by_o another_o we_o think_v that_o he_o will_v have_v perform_v that_o great_a work_n by_o two_o excellent_a person_n and_o he_o have_v now_o teach_v we_o that_o have_v begin_v it_o by_o two_o illustrious_a head_n he_o will_v perfect_v it_o by_o one._n our_o great_a queen_n have_v be_v not_o a_o little_a useful_a to_o produce_v those_o great_a event_n if_o she_o do_v not_o lead_v the_o prince_n to_o the_o throne_n she_o facilitated_a the_o way_n to_o it_o which_o his_o own_o wisdom_n and_o courage_n have_v open_v she_o be_v the_o bond_n of_o union_n between_o the_o king_n and_o the_o nation_n she_o have_v establish_v that_o union_n during_o six_o year_n she_o have_v in_o in_o her_o time_n raise_v our_o dead_a hope_n and_o revive_v our_o dead_a church_n god_n resolve_v to_o finish_v without_o she_o that_o which_o he_o begin_v by_o she_o and_o so_o long_o as_o god_n shall_v preserve_v to_o we_o him_n who_o be_v the_o breath_n of_o our_o nostril_n according_a to_o the_o style_n of_o the_o prophet_n we_o will_v breathe_v still_o we_o will_v hope_v and_o we_o will_v live_v i_o be_o not_o ignorant_a that_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o peace_n of_o europe_n will_v be_v ready_a to_o conceive_v great_a hope_n from_o this_o mournful_a accident_n but_o he_o that_o sit_v in_o the_o heaven_n shall_v laugh_v at_o their_o device_n he_o have_v already_o sufficient_o explain_v his_o gracious_a intention_n and_o so_o favourable_a a_o providence_n appear_v evident_o in_o this_o sad_a juncture_n that_o we_o may_v plain_o see_v that_o he_o that_o give_v the_o blow_n have_v no_o mind_n to_o destroy_v we_o it_o be_v more_o natural_a that_o this_o misfortune_n shall_v have_v happen_v to_o we_o in_o the_o heat_n of_o summer_n which_o be_v the_o proper_a season_n for_o malignant_a disease_n and_o then_o the_o king_n absence_n may_v have_v put_v a_o opportunity_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o enemy_n to_o plot_n mischief_n at_o home_n this_o fatal_a death_n may_v have_v also_o surprise_v we_o when_o the_o parliament_n be_v not_o assemble_v and_o by_o this_o mean_n have_v give_v occasion_n to_o the_o vain_a hope_n and_o perhaps_o also_o to_o the_o treasonable_a attempt_n of_o our_o enemy_n but_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o king_n the_o sit_v of_o the_o parliament_n and_o the_o entire_a union_n that_o be_v between_o he_o and_o they_o be_v sufficient_a to_o dispel_v all_o our_o fear_n and_o give_v we_o a_o comfortable_a assurance_n of_o the_o future_a success_n of_o the_o just_a cause_n god_n have_v indeed_o discharge_v the_o torrent_n of_o his_o indignation_n against_o we_o but_o he_o have_v set_v bound_n to_o they_o he_o have_v pour_v forth_o the_o vial_n of_o his_o fury_n upon_o we_o but_o he_o stop_v it_o before_o it_o come_v to_o the_o bottom_n we_o ought_v every_o one_o of_o we_o to_o stand_v between_o the_o dead_a and_o the_o live_n that_o the_o plague_n may_v be_v stay_v we_o ought_v to_o beseech_v god_n to_o inspite_o that_o great_a king_n with_o wise_a counsel_n that_o he_o may_v continue_v his_o assistance_n to_o those_o to_o who_o his_o presence_n be_v so_o necessary_a and_o to_o enable_v he_o to_o fill_v up_o that_o great_a breach_n which_o will_v be_v make_v by_o his_o absence_n and_o by_o the_o death_n of_o his_o other_o self_n and_o if_o god_n shall_v vouchsafe_v to_o grant_v these_o our_o petition_n we_o may_v still_o without_o vanity_n preserve_v our_o hope_n thus_o my_o brethren_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o those_o tear_n which_o ought_v never_o to_o be_v dry_v up_o since_o our_o loss_n can_v never_o be_v repair_v let_v we_o trust_v in_o god_n and_o in_o the_o goodness_n of_o the_o king_n who_o be_v of_o himself_o full_a of_o compassion_n as_o you_o have_v find_v by_o frequent_a experience_n and_o henceforth_o we_o have_v reason_n to_o hope_n that_o he_o will_v unite_v in_o his_o own_o heart_n all_o that_o charity_n and_o

our_o great_a prince_n will_v perfect_v it_o rather_o than_o over-turn_a it_o all_o that_o vast_a number_n of_o altar_n and_o live_a temple_n where_o that_o great_a queen_n offer_v up_o daily_a
