we_o be_v to_o confess_v before_o god_n and_o what_o we_o be_v to_o amend_v if_o they_o yet_o continue_v among_o we_o i_o can_v pretend_v to_o give_v a_o very_a particular_a account_n of_o our_o national_a sin_n at_o that_o time_n nor_o dare_v i_o take_v upon_o i_o to_o charge_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o that_o judgement_n upon_o this_o or_o that_o sort_n of_o men._n some_o indeed_o have_v be_v too_o lavish_a that_o way_n in_o declaim_v against_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o court_n and_o of_o the_o govern_v part_n of_o this_o nation_n but_o they_o have_v do_v it_o with_o a_o wicked_a design_n to_o blast_v the_o memory_n of_o he_o that_o have_v the_o least_o share_n of_o they_o i_o beseech_v god_n it_o may_v not_o be_v lay_v to_o their_o charge_n but_o for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o nation_n in_o general_n i_o think_v it_o can_v be_v deny_v they_o all_o spring_v from_o a_o surfeit_n of_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n our_o religion_n our_o liberty_n and_o our_o property_n be_v all_o in_o such_o a_o flourish_a state_n as_o make_v we_o the_o envy_n of_o all_o other_o nation_n round_o about_o we_o and_o yet_o here_o at_o home_n through_o the_o practice_n of_o some_o

in_o a_o blind_a belief_n whereof_o multitude_n of_o the_o people_n run_v into_o sect_n and_o those_o inflame_v they_o into_o a_o horrible_a rebellion_n which_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o nation_n the_o generality_n of_o they_o do_v but_o too_o tame_o comply_v with_o and_o they_o that_o according_a to_o their_o duty_n oppose_v this_o yet_o too_o many_o even_o of_o they_o so_o far_o provoke_v god_n with_o their_o sin_n that_o he_o think_v fit_a to_o punish_v the_o whole_a nation_n by_o deprive_v it_o of_o all_o those_o blessing_n at_o once_o in_o suffer_v that_o excellent_a king_n to_o be_v

national_a judgement_n and_o this_o judgement_n be_v take_v aright_o by_o many_o devout_a people_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n at_o that_o time_n who_o immediate_o humble_v themselves_o under_o

must_v needs_o be_v say_v to_o do_v right_a to_o those_o usurper_n that_o they_o severe_o correct_v all_o vice_n but_o those_o that_o be_v chief_o their_o own_o especial_o drink_v swear_v and_o
