A96291 A declaration to Great Britain and Ireland, shewing the downfall of their princes, and wherefore it is come upon them: because Christ is riding on his white horse, conquering his enemies till he have destroyed Antichrist, who hath made the nations drunk with the cup of her fornications: and till he have destroyed Mahomet, that great deceiver of the people. / Written and directed to Great Britain, and all other nations; by me Robert Wharton, wel-wisher to my countrymen, and to all the faithfull in Christ Jesus throughout the world. With an humble advice to the Army. This treatise is approved and commended, and thought worthy to be printed, by Master Hugh Peters. Wharton, Robert, fl. 1649. 1649 (1649) Wing W1575; Thomason E555_35; ESTC R204066 18,927 28

not_o know_v that_o christ_n be_v on_o his_o white_a horse_n ride_v on_o his_o journey_n conquer_a and_o overcome_v his_o enemy_n revel_v 6.2_o and_o have_v not_o he_o set_v you_o as_o watchman_n

how_o have_v you_o be_v the_o cause_n partly_o of_o raise_v this_o army_n and_o how_o have_v they_o prevail_v against_o your_o enemy_n even_o by_o your_o prayer_n i_o pray_v remember_v the_o

you_o when_o you_o see_v these_o man_n give_v large_a and_o merciful_a proposition_n when_o they_o have_v conquer_v your_o enemy_n at_o oxford_n do_v you_o not_o say_v that_o they_o will_v prove_v

sure_o this_o be_v a_o sad_a case_n when_o you_o shall_v seek_v to_o weaken_v their_o hand_n thus_o strive_v not_o against_o they_o for_o have_v not_o this_o be_v of_o the_o lord_n they_o have_v never_o do_v so_o much_o as_o they_o have_v therefore_o count_v not_o they_o your_o enemy_n for_o you_o shall_v have_v cause_n to_o say_v once_o more_o to_o call_v they_o your_o friend_n when_o you_o

21.1_o know_v you_o not_o that_o when_o a_o noble_a man_n go_v to_o take_v possession_n of_o a_o great_a place_n or_o house_n full_a of_o lumber_n that_o he_o will_v cause_v his_o servant_n to_o

but_o i_o will_v not_o hear_v they_o shall_v seek_v i_o early_o but_o shall_v not_o find_v i_o because_o they_o hate_v knowledge_n and_o do_v not_o choose_v the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n then_o

for_o as_o most_o know_v their_o power_n be_v so_o strong_a that_o at_o every_o field_n fight_n the_o king_n have_v he_o get_v the_o better_a at_o the_o beginning_n but_o before_o the_o battle_n be_v
