Vncle his Grace my Lord Archbishop of Canterbury have very much encouraged me but the great fame of your growing Virtues hath emboldned me especially having the honour to be a Draper by descent to address my Jonas to you who as he wants little of my Anagram so I am sure hath been the fore-runner of my Fortunes In this only I have by Divine Permission exceeded him that for his three days I have lain thirty years perfectly in a Whales belly but I still trust in our most good and gracious God that as he did him so he will bring me to a happy shore either in this world or a better In the mean time I hope this glorious City which hath receiv'd so many fatherly chastisements from the Divine hand by Sword Plague and Fire will by your noble Precept and Example take a fair warning to sin no more least a worse thing come upon them I cannot but hope likewise my hearty humble service will prove no less acceptable to this most famous City of which you are so near the Supreme Government under the Kings Majesty whom God long preserve in a most prosperous Reign for his own glory the good of this most Honourable City and the comfort of all us his poor Subjects and most particularly of Most
