that_o many_o and_o grievous_a have_v be_v his_o trouble_n but_o the_o lord_n have_v deliver_v he_o out_o of_o they_o all_o and_o both_o by_o the_o qualification_n require_v in_o such_o a_o person_n and_o by_o the_o great_a deliverance_n which_o he_o have_v give_v to_o he_o have_v undeniable_o demonstrate_v that_o he_o be_v his_o king_n but_o as_o if_o it_o be_v a_o small_a thing_n in_o the_o

and_o we_o he_o have_v add_v to_o his_o deliverance_n success_n and_o triumph_n witness_v the_o happy_a reduction_n of_o the_o neighbour_a nation_n so_o that_o he_o have_v not_o only_o save_v his_o

have_v make_v his_o crown_n to_o flourish_v certain_o the_o consideration_n of_o such_o extraordinary_a advantage_n shall_v powerful_o induce_v we_o to_o give_v praise_n unto_o god_n who_o have_v give_v such_o great_a deliverance_n to_o his_o king_n and_o communicate_v by_o he_o such_o benefit_n to_o we_o all_o and_o this_o lead_v i_o to_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o four_o and_o last_o

which_o he_o have_v give_v to_o his_o king_n ingratitude_n be_v not_o only_o the_o base_a but_o the_o most_o dangerous_a too_o of_o all_o vice_n and_o draw_v after_o it_o a_o train_n of_o consequence_n no_o less_o fatal_a and_o destructive_a than_o they_o be_v shameful_a and_o dishonourable_a even_o among_o man_n themselves_o he_o forfeit_v all_o title_n to_o future_a favour_n that_o be_v unthankful_a for_o those_o which_o he_o have_v already_o receive_v and_o nothing_o make_v a_o man_n less_o befriend_v in_o his_o necessity_n or_o more_o unpitied_a in_o his_o adversity_n than_o the_o black_a imputation_n and_o character_n of_o a_o ungrateful_a person_n but_o when_o the_o case_n be_v state_v between_o god_n and_o man_n the_o woeful_a effect_n of_o so_o degenerate_a a_o temper_n be_v vast_o great_a and_o more_o pernicious_a for_o then_o we_o do_v not_o only_o cut_v off_o our_o own_o expectation_n and_o render_v ourselves_o uncapable_a of_o future_a mercy_n but_o we_o lose_v the_o advantage_n also_o of_o all_o our_o former_a blessing_n and_o by_o a_o unhappy_a kind_n of_o alchemy_n convert_v they_o into_o curse_n how_o signal_o and_o remarkable_o we_o have_v late_o

acknowledge_v that_o god_n have_v compass_v we_o about_o with_o song_n of_o deliverance_n if_o we_o consider_v the_o many_o danger_n and_o distress_n from_o which_o it_o have_v please_v the_o good_a providence_n of_o god_n to_o protect_v his_o present_a majesty_n both_o as_o to_o open_a violence_n and_o secret_a practice_n so_o that_o no_o weapon_n no_o design_n form_v against_o he_o have_v prosper_v and_o how_o he_o have_v be_v please_v to_o bring_v he_o back_o to_o his_o long_a people_n in_o health_n and_o safety_n we_o can_v but_o confess_v that_o great_a deliverance_n have_v he_o give_v to_o his_o king_n and_o from_o both_o consideration_n we_o must_v necessary_o infer_v that_o vast_a return_v of_o gratitude_n be_v due_a upon_o our_o side_n which_o we_o be_v oblige_v to_o pay_v after_o the_o follow_a manner_n first_o by_o praise_n and_o thanksgiving_n to_o almighty_a god_n the_o author_n and_o fountain_n of_o they_o all_o so_o many_o visible_a appearance_n of_o the_o divine_a providence_n have_v entitle_v god_n to_o the_o sole_a honour_n of_o our_o signal_n deliverance_n that_o it_o will_v be_v a_o direct_a rob_v he_o of_o his_o glory_n to_o pretend_v to_o
