quiet_a at_o home_n the_o tradesman_n may_v safe_o mind_v his_o shop_n and_o the_o husbandman_n his_o blow_n in_o time_n of_o peace_n our_o flock_n and_o herd_n be_v wont_n to_o multiply_v our_o

be_v at_o peace_n abroad_o with_o other_o nation_n how_o cheerful_o may_v our_o merchant_n transport_v their_o good_n beyond_o the_o sea_n and_o bring_v back_o their_o ship_n rich_o lade_v with_o silk_n silver_n gold_n and_o diamond_n in_o short_a when_o we_o have_v peace_n both_o at_o home_o and_o abroad_o we_o of_o this_o nation_n can_v want_v for_o nothing_o that_o tend_v to_o make_v a_o kingdom_n happy_a but_o the_o best_a way_n to_o understand_v and_o value_v the_o benefit_n of_o peace_n be_v to_o consider_v the_o calamity_n of_o war_n methinks_v drum_n and_o trumpet_n carbine_n and_o pistol_n musket_n and_o canon_n be_v name_n which_o sound_v like_a to_o dreadful_a clap_n of_o thunder_n and_o ten_o thousand_o glitter_a sword_n seem_v as_o terrible_a as_o so_o many_o flash_n of_o lightning_n for_o where_o war_n be_v raise_v trade_n decay_v merchant_n break_v tax_n grow_v high_a money_n grow_v scarce_o treasure_n be_v exhaust_v law_n be_v interrupt_v house_n be_v plunder_v

benefit_n of_o peace_n and_o the_o misery_n of_o war_n be_v indeed_o so_o exceed_v great_a we_o may_v well_o conclude_v that_o peace_n be_v a_o blessing_n very_o desirable_a by_o all_o mankind_n unless_o perhaps_o it_o be_v by_o some_o proud_a tyrannical_a and_o ambitious_a prince_n or_o such_o soldier_n of_o fortune_n as_o know_v not_o how_o to_o live_v without_o rapine_n plunder_n and_o wage_n to_o destroy_v the_o life_n and_o fortune_n of_o other_o men._n now_o to_o apply_v this_o 1._o consider_v we_o the_o great_a reason_n we_o have_v to_o keep_v a_o solemn_a day_n of_o thanksgiving_n with_o all_o expression_n of_o gratitude_n for_o that_o welcome_a peace_n which_o after_o a_o tedious_a war_n be_v now_o settle_a betwixt_o we_o and_o our_o neighbour_n nation_n for_o by_o this_o happy_a peace_n we_o be_v for_o time_n to_o come_v secure_v from_o those_o calamity_n which_o we_o have_v suffer_v by_o the_o late_a war_n for_o so_o many_o year_n together_o i_o need_v not_o here_o again_o enumerate_v the_o misery_n of_o war_n nor_o mind_n you_o that_o it_o have_v drain_v our_o purse_n that_o it_o have_v cost_v a_o world_n of_o treasure_n and_o which_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n worse_o that_o the_o sword_n have_v drink_v whole_a barrel_n of_o english_a blood_n and_o if_o the_o misery_n of_o war_n be_v so_o exceed_v dreadful_a our_o deliverance_n from_o they_o must_v needs_o deserve_v our_o thanks_o and_o those_o thanks_o be_v due_a both_o to_o our_o god_n and_o to_o our_o king_n first_o our_o thanks_o for_o peace_n be_v due_a to_o our_o god_n for_o he_o who_o be_v our_o god_n be_v the_o god_n of_o peace_n the_o great_a author_n of_o it_o so_o do_v the_o psalmist_n tell_v we_o 46.9_o he_o make_v war_n to_o cease_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n he_o break_v the_o bow_n and_o cut_v the_o spear_n in_o sunder_o he_o burn_v the_o chariot_n in_o the_o fire_n when_o it_o be_v his_o good_a pleasure_n so_o to_o do_v he_o can_v and_o do_v incline_v the_o heart_n of_o man_n to_o peace_n and_o in_o order_n to_o that_o they_o shall_v lay_v aside_o the_o usual_a engine_n of_o war_n so_o the_o prophet_n tell_v we_o they_o shall_v beat_v their_o sword_n into_o plowshare_n 2.4_o and_o their_o spear_n into_o prune_a hook_n nation_n shall_v not_o lift_v up_o sword_n against_o nation_n neither_o shall_v they_o learn_v war_n any_o more_o the_o do_v of_o this_o be_v a_o peculiar_a prerogative_n which_o the_o glorious_a majesty_n of_o heaven_n do_v most_o just_o claim_v to_o himself_o 45.7_o i_o make_v peace_n and_o create_v evil_a i_o the_o lord_n do_v all_o these_o thing_n it_o be_v he_o that_o raise_v war_n in_o his_o wrath_n and_o it_o be_v he_o who_o put_v a_o end_n to_o war_n and_o create_v peace_n in_o his_o mercy_n and_o if_o so_o since_o by_o he_o we_o now_o enjoy_v the_o blessing_n of_o peace_n can_v we_o do_v less_o than_o bless_v he_o for_o it_o second_o our_o thanks_o for_o peace_n be_v also_o due_a to_o our_o king_n as_o be_v the_o great_a instrument_n in_o god_n hand_n to_o procure_v it_o for_o we_o we_o have_v now_o a_o king_n well_o qualify_v with_o prudence_n and_o policy_n to_o manage_v our_o civil_a affair_n in_o time_n of_o peace_n and_o we_o have_v a_o prince_n of_o wise_a conduct_n and_o most_o excellent_a courage_n to_o lead_v our_o army_n in_o a_o time_n of_o war_n a_o king_n who_o for_o his_o

and_o certain_o will_v have_v overcome_v they_o all_o and_o in_o that_o case_n the_o only_a favour_n which_o england_n can_v have_v expect_v will_v have_v be_v this_o namely_o to_o have_v be_v devour_v last_o but_o thanks_o be_v to_o god_n and_o to_o our_o king_n that_o danger_n be_v now_o quite_o over_o for_o the_o french_a king_n find_v his_o kingdom_n reduce_v to_o such_o extremity_n that_o he_o be_v force_v to_o desire_v a_o cessation_n of_o arm_n but_o that_o be_v deny_v he_o he_o see_v himself_o constrain_v to_o conclude_v a_o peace_n that_o peace_n which_o no_o man_n can_v have_v hope_v for_o have_v not_o our_o king_n disable_v france_n to_o continue_v the_o war._n and_o what_o return_v shall_v we_o make_v to_o our_o king_n for_o this_o let_v our_o heart_n be_v with_o

a_o settle_a peace_n betwixt_o we_o and_o other_o nation_n beyond_o the_o sea_n let_v we_o endeavour_v to_o restore_v and_o settle_v a_o last_a peace_n among_o ourselves_o here_o at_o home_o i_o do_v not_o mean_v civil_a peace_n only_o but_o a_o peace_n ecclesiastical_a and_o sacred_a it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o primitive_a christian_n 4.32_o the_o multitude_n of_o they_o that_o believe_v be_v

in_o england_n we_o may_v hope_v to_o see_v golden_a day_n yet_o once_o again_o but_o alas_o as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o old_a for_o the_o division_n of_o reuben_n there_o be_v great_a thought_n of_o

circumstance_n of_o our_o religion_n we_o lose_v it_o be_v very_a substance_n but_o will_v our_o dissenter_n act_v like_o man_n and_o hearken_v to_o right_a reason_n will_v they_o act_v like_o

of_o stuff_n or_o silk_n a_o cloak_n or_o a_o gown_n of_o

the_o preacher_n must_v sit_v or_o stand_v whether_o the_o lord_n supper_n shall_v be_v administer_v in_o the_o church_n or_o in_o the_o chancel_n the_o scripture_n do_v no_o where_o teach_v we_o no_o these_o and_o the_o like_a indifferent_a circumstance_n must_v to_o prevent_v disorder_n be_v determine_v by_o the_o piety_n and_o prudence_n of_o our_o church_n governor_n and_o when_o once_o they_o in_o order_n to_o decency_n uniformity_n and_o the_o more_o solemn_a administration_n of_o our_o divine_a worship_n have_v upon_o mature_a advice_n and_o deliberation_n prescribe_v we_o such_o rule_n as_o be_v no_o way_n contrary_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n by_o the_o same_o word_n do_v we_o all_o stand_v oblige_v in_o conscience_n to_o obey_v they_o and_o be_v this_o general_o do_v our_o dispute_n and_o quarrel_n about_o our_o ceremony_n which_o be_v but_o few_o and_o innocent_a will_v be_v at_o a_o end_n but_o so_o long_o as_o we_o think_v ourselves_o either_o more_o know_v or_o more_o conscientious_a than_o our_o ruler_n while_o we_o refuse_v to_o submit_v to_o their_o determination_n about_o thing_n indifferent_a and_o thereupon_o break_v and_o crumble_v out_o self_n into_o

and_o submit_v yourselves_o and_o again_o be_v of_o one_o mind_n live_v in_o peace_n and_o yet_o again_o endeavour_v to_o keep_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o bond_n of_o peace_n it_o
