many_o of_o your_o dear_a brethren_n in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n have_v be_v so_o far_o from_o prefer_v their_o worldly_a treasure_n before_o the_o good_a of_o god_n church_n that_o they_o have_v not_o only_o liberal_o contribute_v thereto_o but_o even_o sacrify_v their_o life_n in_o the_o cause_n against_o the_o enemy_n thereof_o who_o memory_n shall_v be_v record_v with_o the_o just_a when_o the_o name_n of_o those_o that_o desert_v the_o same_o shall_v infamous_o perish_v in_o oblivion_n consider_v again_o i_o pray_v you_o the_o pestilent_a sect_n of_o papistical_a malignant_n who_o spare_v no_o cost_n they_o possible_o can_v procure_v either_o by_o beg_v borrow_a sell_v pawn_v mortgage_v filch_a steal_a oppress_a and_o all_o to_o re-edify_v the_o synagogue_n of_o satan_n and_o antichrist_n again_o in_o this_o kingdom_n this_o generation_n of_o viper_n shall_v rise_v up_o in_o judgement_n against_o all_o those_o that_o come_v not_o forth_o to_o help_v the_o lord_n against_o the_o mighty_a and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o your_o three_o reason_n which_o be_v your_o inability_n to_o help_v to_o which_o i_o answer_v the_o help_n that_o be_v require_v in_o such_o a_o case_n as_o this_o be_v fourfold_a viz._n either_o in_o body_n in_o purse_n in_o counsel_n or_o in_o prayer_n and_o though_o i_o nominate_v prayer_n last_o yet_o be_v it_o to_o be_v join_v with_o the_o first_o and_o also_o with_o all_o the_o rest_n for_o no_o action_n can_v be_v well_o perform_v without_o it_o but_o grant_v that_o you_o be_v to_o be_v excuse_v for_o the_o first_o in_o regard_n of_o age_n and_o other_o infirmity_n attend_v thereon_o yet_o for_o the_o second_o you_o can_v have_v no_o such_o pretence_n to_o excuse_v yourself_o god_n have_v bless_v you_o with_o abundance_n to_o do_v good_a either_o in_o this_o or_o any_o other_o kind_n if_o your_o heart_n be_v answerable_a thereto_o and_o therefore_o remember_v salomon_n caution_n prov._n 24._o 25._o he_o that_o spare_v more_o than_o be_v meet_v shall_v sure_o come_v to_o poverty_n so_o than_o if_o you_o extend_v not_o your_o liberality_n in_o this_o business_n for_o the_o public_a good_a of_o god_n church_n you_o spare_v more_o than_o be_v meet_v and_o god_n be_v able_a to_o send_v a_o thousand_o cross_n upon_o you_o to_o diminish_v that_o which_o you_o so_o careful_o keep_v and_o if_o you_o be_v not_o able_a in_o body_n nor_o willing_a in_o your_o mean_n yet_o be_v not_o deficient_a by_o good_a counsel_n to_o provoke_v and_o encourage_v other_o and_o join_v with_o the_o church_n in_o hearty_a and_o unfeigned_a prayer_n and_o you_o shall_v see_v god_n will_v send_v as_o strange_a a_o deliverance_n unto_o the_o church_n as_o he_o do_v unto_o peter_n at_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o church_n of_o which_o admirable_a deliverance_n you_o may_v read_v at_o large_a in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n chap._n 12._o your_o four_o reason_n be_v the_o potency_n of_o the_o enemy_n o_o let_v not_o this_o discourage_v you_o for_o though_o their_o power_n be_v never_o so_o great_a yet_o the_o power_n of_o god_n be_v great_a and_o if_o he_o be_v on_o our_o side_n as_o undoubted_o he_o be_v what_o need_v we_o fear_v what_o power_n be_v against_o we_o rom._n 8._o 31._o and_o although_o they_o say_v in_o the_o pride_n of_o their_o heart_n as_o once_o the_o egyptian_n do_v exod._n 15._o 9_o i_o will_v pursue_v i_o will_v overtake_v i_o will_v divide_v the_o spoil_n my_o lust_n shall_v be_v satisfy_v upon_o they_o i_o will_v draw_v my_o sword_n my_o hand_n shall_v destroy_v they_o mark_v what_o follow_v the_o lord_n do_v but_o blow_n with_o his_o wind_n and_o the_o sea_n cover_v they_o and_o they_o sink_v as_o lead_v in_o the_o mighty_a water_n and_o therefore_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o as_o moses_n say_v to_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n fear_v not_o stand_v still_o and_o see_v the_o salvatian_n of_o the_o lord_n exod._n 14._o 13._o for_o of_o this_o you_o may_v be_v sure_a the_o more_o they_o prevail_v and_o the_o strong_a they_o grow_v the_o more_o they_o exalt_v themselves_o in_o the_o pride_n of_o their_o heart_n to_o the_o fill_n up_o of_o the_o measure_n of_o their_o iniquity_n and_o the_o soon_o become_a the_o object_n of_o god_n wrath_n in_o their_o sudden_a destruction_n for_o than_o the_o lord_n shall_v speak_v to_o they_o in_o his_o anger_n and_o vex_v they_o in_o his_o sore_a displeasure_n and_o their_o lofty_a look_n shall_v be_v humble_v and_o their_o haughtiness_n bow_v down_o isai._n 2._o 11._o and_o as_o a_o whirl_n wind_n pass_v away_o so_o shall_v they_o be_v no_o more_o but_o the_o righteous_a shall_v be_v a_o everlasting_a foundation_n pro._n 10._o 25._o and_o as_o they_o be_v by_o their_o pride_n exalt_v to_o their_o destruction_n so_o be_v the_o people_n and_o child_n of_o god_n by_o suffer_v persecution_n affliction_n and_o oppression_n under_o they_o fit_v for_o mercy_n and_o deliverance_n for_o when_o the_o afflict_a cry_n unto_o the_o lord_n he_o deliver_v they_o out_o of_o all_o their_o distress_n as_o you_o may_v comfortable_o read_v in_o psal._n 107._o be_v therefore_o faithful_a and_o obedient_a and_o you_o shall_v have_v cause_n in_o your_o happy_a deliverance_n with_o holy_a david_n to_o say_v other_o man_n will_v praise_v the_o lord_n for_o his_o goodness_n and_o for_o his_o wonderful_a work_n to_o the_o son_n of_o man_n fear_v not_o therefore_o their_o mighty_a power_n nor_o their_o cruel_a oppression_n for_o the_o rod_n of_o the_o wicked_a shall_v not_o rest_v upon_o the_o lot_n of_o the_o righteous_a but_o god_n shall_v send_v peace_n on_o israel_n and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o your_o last_o reason_n which_o be_v unlikelihood_n of_o reformation_n when_o it_o be_v most_o unlikely_a with_o man_n yea_o when_o it_o seem_v impossible_a then_o be_v it_o most_o likely_a and_o possible_a with_o god_n i_o will_v give_v you_o two_o instance_n herein_o in_o the_o second_o of_o the_o king_n and_o seven_o chapter_n when_o the_o famine_n be_v great_a in_o samaria_n and_o the_o prophet_n prophesy_v of_o the_o great_a plenty_n that_o shall_v ensue_v the_o next_o day_n that_o the_o lord_n on_o whole_a hand_n the_o king_n lean_v think_v it_o impossible_a although_o the_o window_n of_o heaven_n shall_v be_v open_v yet_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v according_a to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o he_o for_o his_o incredulity_n be_v not_o permit_v to_o taste_v thereof_o therefore_o trust_v you_o in_o the_o lord_n always_o for_o with_o he_o unlikelihood_n be_v likely_a and_o impossibility_n be_v possible_a another_o instance_n almost_o yet_o in_o the_o memory_n of_o some_o man_n live_v viz._n after_o the_o death_n of_o that_o hopeful_a young_a king_n edward_n the_o six_o when_o queen_n mary_n get_v the_o crown_n and_o have_v establish_v popery_n in_o your_o kingdom_n of_o england_n there_o be_v then_o little_a likelihood_n of_o reformation_n but_o when_o she_o have_v strengthen_v herself_o by_o marry_v with_o a_o popish_a prince_n there_o be_v then_o far_o less_o yet_o here_o be_v some_o hope_n leave_v that_o she_o may_v have_v die_v without_o issue_n but_o when_o she_o have_v conceive_v with_o child_n than_o there_o be_v no_o hope_n leave_v at_o all_o and_o yet_o even_o then_o be_v the_o church_n deliverance_n near_o at_o hand_n when_o the_o lord_n turn_v the_o storm_n of_o antichristian_a fury_n into_o a_o sweet_a and_o delectable_a calm_n of_o grace_n and_o mercy_n till_o now_o of_o late_a some_o of_o that_o viperous_a brood_n be_v again_o spring_v up_o to_o disturb_v our_o peace_n but_o be_v you_o faithful_a and_o continue_v constant_a in_o all_o obedience_n and_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o god_n will_v yet_o again_o build_v up_o the_o wall_n of_o jerusalem_n and_o repair_v all_o her_o breach_n and_o thus_o i_o conclude_v with_o the_o apostle_n john_n in_o his_o 2._o epistle_n and_o 12._o verse_n have_v many_o thing_n to_o write_v unto_o you_o i_o will_v not_o write_v with_o paper_n and_o ink_n but_o hope_v to_o come_v unto_o you_o and_o speak_v face_n to_o face_n that_o our_o joy_n may_v be_v full_a edinburgh_n nov._n 6._o 1643._o you_o to_o love_n
