at_o this_o time_n have_v for_o indeed_o when_o do_v god_n ever_o more_o eminent_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o king_n than_o in_o those_o frequent_a and_o signal_n deliverance_n which_o he_o have_v afford_v to_o our_o own_o royal_a sovereign_n from_o the_o hurtful_a sword_n if_o 1_o st_z we_o consider_v his_o personal_a deliverance_n i_o may_v venture_v to_o affirm_v that_o never_o do_v any_o prince_n more_o generous_o expose_v himself_o for_o any_o people_n than_o his_o majesty_n in_o these_o late_a year_n have_v do_v for_o we_o nor_o i_o think_v ever_o do_v any_o more_o narrow_o escape_v with_o safety_n out_o of_o they_o for_o not_o to_o say_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o common_a hazard_n of_o war_n though_o perhaps_o no_o prince_n either_o undertake_v more_o expedition_n or_o carry_v they_o on_o with_o great_a diligence_n or_o appear_v in_o they_o with_o more_o courage_n or_o end_v they_o with_o better_a success_n or_o less_o consider_v his_o own_o safety_n in_o comparison_n of_o the_o public_a good_a than_o our_o royal_a master_n have_v do_v since_o the_o time_n of_o he_o of_o who_o our_o text_n speak_v i_o can_v scarce_o yet_o without_o astonishment_n remember_v how_o near_o the_o fatal_a blow_n ireland_n come_v to_o he_o which_o have_v not_o the_o watchful_a providence_n of_o god_n for_o sure_a nothing_o else_o can_v have_v do_v it_o prevent_v must_v for_o ever_o have_v quench_v the_o light_n of_o our_o 17._o israel_n and_o have_v at_o once_o put_v a_o final_a period_n both_o to_o his_o life_n and_o in_o that_o to_o all_o our_o hope_n but_o that_o god_n who_o raise_v he_o up_o to_o assert_v his_o cause_n and_o to_o vindicate_v the_o liberty_n not_o of_o this_o country_n only_o but_o of_o all_o europe_n from_o the_o rage_n and_o power_n of_o its_o common_a enemy_n and_o oppressor_n have_v yet_o more_o victory_n for_o he_o to_o obtain_v and_o therefore_o he_o hear_v our_o prayer_n and_o cover_v his_o head_n in_o that_o day_n of_o battle_n and_o send_v he_o back_o to_o we_o with_o so_o much_o the_o great_a joy_n by_o how_o much_o the_o near_o we_o be_v to_o have_v be_v utter_o deprive_v of_o he_o but_o that_o which_o ought_v yet_o more_o to_o be_v consider_v by_o we_o and_o to_o raise_v up_o our_o soul_n to_o a_o still_o great_a height_n of_o thanksgiving_n for_o this_o deliverance_n be_v that_o as_o his_o danger_n be_v imminent_a so_o be_v it_o of_o such_o a_o nature_n too_o that_o nothing_o but_o the_o same_o god_n who_o preserve_v david_n heretofore_o from_o the_o hurtful_a sword_n can_v have_v deliver_v our_o king_n from_o the_o stroke_n of_o it_o here_o be_v no_o room_n for_o counsel_n or_o advice_n no_o opportunity_n for_o any_o humane_a mean_n to_o have_v interpose_v for_o his_o preservation_n neither_o the_o courage_n of_o his_o brave_a nor_o the_o conduct_n of_o his_o wise_a servant_n can_v have_v stand_v he_o in_o any_o stead_n no_o it_o be_v that_o god_n who_o do_v deliver_v he_o that_o alone_o be_v capable_a of_o do_v of_o it_o and_o therefore_o not_o unto_o we_o o_o lord_n but_o 1_o unto_o thy_o name_n be_v the_o glory_n of_o it_o and_o these_o be_v such_o circumstance_n as_o will_v at_o any_o time_n have_v engage_v we_o to_o a_o lively_a sense_n of_o so_o great_a a_o deliverance_n but_o at_o such_o a_o time_n as_o that_o be_v in_o which_o god_n be_v please_v thus_o wonderful_o to_o preserve_v he_o to_o restore_v he_o again_o to_o we_o this_o be_v what_o give_v a_o singular_a addition_n to_o the_o blessing_n of_o it_o for_o a_o nation_n to_o be_v deprive_v of_o a_o good_a prince_n a_o king_n endue_v with_o all_o those_o royal_a virtue_n which_o even_o the_o enemy_n of_o our_o great_a sovereign_n can_v deny_v to_o be_v most_o conspicuous_a in_o he_o must_v certain_o at_o any_o time_n have_v be_v a_o very_a great_a calamity_n and_o what_o will_v have_v call_v for_o the_o lamentation_n of_o all_o that_o true_o value_v either_o the_o honour_n or_o welfare_n of_o their_o country_n but_o to_o have_v be_v deprive_v of_o such_o a_o prince_n in_o a_o time_n of_o trouble_n and_o difficulty_n when_o nothing_o but_o his_o conduct_n his_o courage_n and_o reputation_n can_v possible_o have_v prevent_v we_o from_o a_o utter_a ruin_n and_o confusion_n i_o want_v word_n to_o express_v how_o fatal_a the_o consequence_n must_v have_v be_v of_o it_o and_o yet_o this_o or_o rather_o if_o possible_a somewhat_o beyond_o all_o this_o be_v our_o case_n when_o god_n send_v we_o this_o great_a deliverance_n our_o enemy_n defy_v we_o from_o abroad_o they_o threaten_v we_o even_o there_o where_o we_o think_v ourselves_o the_o most_o secure_a against_o they_o where_o we_o be_v wont_a till_o now_o to_o give_v law_n and_o strike_v terror_n into_o all_o other_o nation_n beside_o and_o have_v they_o obtain_v this_o far_a advantage_n against_o we_o what_o can_v have_v hinder_v but_o that_o our_o very_a name_n and_o nation_n our_o liberty_n and_o religion_n must_v for_o ever_o have_v be_v bury_v in_o reproach_n and_o desolation_n nor_o be_v the_o insolence_n of_o those_o within_o any_o less_o they_o begin_v already_o to_o devour_v we_o again_o in_o their_o hope_n and_o expect_v only_o when_o the_o happy_a minute_n shall_v come_v that_o will_v again_o have_v put_v they_o in_o a_o condition_n to_o have_v accomplish_v their_o wicked_a design_n against_o we_o thus_o do_v all_o thing_n seem_v manifest_o to_o threaten_v we_o with_o rain_n and_o confusion_n nothing_o now_o remain_v but_o the_o dread_a of_o our_o absent_a prince_n and_o who_o though_o at_o the_o great_a distance_n they_o can_v but_o tremble_v at_o to_o rescue_v we_o from_o these_o danger_n and_o we_o may_v true_o say_v it_o be_v the_o reputation_n of_o his_o name_n and_o
