2._o learn_v hence_o to_o amplify_v deliverance_n and_o salvation_n to_o raise_v they_o to_o the_o very_a height_n above_o expression_n with_o the_o prophet_n in_o my_o text_n such_o a_o deliverance_n

look_v round_o about_o this_o rare_a deliverance_n and_o amplify_v it_o all_o the_o way_n that_o you_o can_v think_v upon_o remember_v how_o you_o prize_v it_o when_o you_o be_v plead_v for_o your_o

deliverance_n as_o this_o use_v 2._o it_o be_v the_o manner_n of_o the_o lord_n when_o he_o punish_v his_o people_n to_o abate_v and_o to_o be_v very_o moderate_a when_o he_o deliver_v they_o and_o show_v they_o mercy_n to_o exceed_v and_o to_o transcend_v all_o measure_n and_o do_v we_o find_v that_o he_o have_v so_o exceed_v as_o in_o other_o mercy_n so_o special_o in_o the_o deliverance_n of_o this_o day_n then_o let_v we_o serious_o consider_v what_o a_o weight_n of_o duty_n lie_v upon_o we_o and_o how_o we_o ought_v to_o transcend_v and_o to_o exceed_v in_o our_o return_n to_o god_n again_o believe_v it_o brethren_n ordinary_a matter_n will_v not_o serve_v the_o turn_n as_o god_n have_v do_v more_o for_o we_o so_o he_o must_v have_v more_o from_o we_o then_o from_o any_o other_o people_n we_o must_v do_v singular_a and_o extraordinary_a thing_n if_o he_o exceed_v in_o mercy_n we_o must_v according_o exceed_v in_o duty_n there_o must_v be_v some_o proportion_n of_o the_o one_o unto_o the_o other_o we_o must_v strive_v to_o render_v to_o he_o according_a to_o the_o benefit_n that_o he_o have_v do_v we_o and_o to_o come_v up_o as_o near_o as_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o his_o measure_n such_o a_o deliverance_n must_v have_v such_o return_n and_o here_o to_o pitch_v upon_o particular_n 1._o such_o a_o deliverance_n must_v have_v such_o a_o remembrance_n it_o must_v have_v some_o memorial_n answerable_a to_o it_o as_o for_o ourselves_o my_o brethren_n we_o must_v engrave_v it_o on_o our_o heart_n and_o keep_v a_o register_n of_o all_o the_o mercy_n that_o concur_v in_o it_o as_o david_n have_v a_o inventory_n of_o the_o gold_n and_o silver_n that_o he_o provide_v for_o the_o temple_n but_o the_o iron_n and_o the_o brass_n he_o number_v not_o because_o it_o be_v without_o weight_n 1_o chron._n 22.14_o so_o though_o we_o can_v reckon_v all_o the_o mercy_n of_o the_o lord_n his_o daily_a and_o his_o hourly_a mercy_n because_o indeed_o they_o be_v without_o number_n yet_o we_o must_v be_v exact_a in_o number_v and_o set_v down_o his_o golden_a and_o his_o silver_n mercy_n such_o a_o deliverance_n as_o this_o with_o all_o the_o circumstance_n of_o it_o must_v not_o be_v forget_v by_o we_o and_o yet_o this_o be_v not_o all_o my_o berthren_a we_o must_v not_o only_o keep_v these_o rare_a and_o extraordinary_a mercy_n in_o our_o mind_n ourselves_o but_o we_o must_v take_v some_o course_n that_o other_o may_v be_v mindful_a of_o they_o and_o that_o while_o the_o world_n last_v that_o the_o lord_n may_v have_v his_o glory_n keep_v afoot_a in_o follow_v age_n a_o duty_n much_o commend_v to_o we_o in_o the_o scripture_n upon_o such_o occasion_n when_o god_n have_v wrought_v a_o great_a salvation_n for_o his_o people_n israel_n moses_n command_v they_o to_o write_v a_o song_n and_o to_o teach_v it_o to_o their_o child_n that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o witness_n for_o the_o lord_n against_o they_o viz._n if_o they_o shall_v prove_v unthankful_a deut._n 31.19_o when_o the_o lord_n shall_v build_v up_o zion_n he_o shall_v appear_v in_o glory_n say_v the_o psalmist_n psal_n 102.16_o and_o what_o then_o must_v they_o keep_v one_o day_n of_o thankfulness_n and_o so_o a_o end_n no_o there_o be_v somewhat_o further_o to_o be_v do_v this_o shall_v be_v write_v for_o the_o generation_n to_o come_v and_o the_o people_n that_o shall_v be_v create_v shall_v praise_v the_o lord_n indeed_o there_o be_v a_o ordinance_n of_o the_o high_a court_n of_o heaven_n to_o this_o purpose_n psal_n 78.5_o he_o appoint_v a_o law_n in_o israel_n which_o he_o do_v command_v our_o father_n and_o what_o do_v he_o command_v our_o father_n that_o they_o shall_v make_v the_o praise_n of_o the_o lord_n his_o strength_n and_o wondrous_a

beloved_a let_v we_o think_v upon_o it_o let_v we_o indevor_n to_o perpetuate_v the_o praise_n of_o god_n let_v we_o use_v some_o mean_n or_o other_o to_o transmit_v it_o to_o posterity_n to_o make_v succeed_a generation_n know_v what_o god_n have_v do_v for_o this_o land_n for_o this_o place_n that_o he_o may_v have_v the_o glory_n of_o it_o as_o long_o as_o the_o sun_n &_o moon_n endure_v brethren_n we_o have_v a_o great_a task_n in_o this_o kind_n we_o have_v very_o much_o to_o do_v because_o the_o lord_n have_v do_v so_o much_o true_o i_o think_v that_o there_o be_v never_o any_o generation_n that_o have_v such_o a_o weight_n of_o duty_n lay_v upon_o they_o it_o be_v the_o say_n of_o a_o wiseman_n that_o troublesome_a time_n be_v good_a for_o the_o writer_n &_o ill_a for_o the_o liver_n he_o that_o live_v in_o they_o shall_v have_v sorrow_n enough_o he_o that_o write_v of_o they_o shall_v have_v matter_n enough_o &_o certain_o these_o time_n of_o we_o yield_v matter_n of_o transmission_n to_o succeed_a generation_n more_o than_o any_o former_a age_n let_v we_o take_v care_n as_o much_o as_o lie_v in_o we_o that_o nothing_o be_v lose_v not_o a_o scrap_n of_o any_o thing_n that_o god_n have_v do_v for_o this_o land_n or_o for_o this_o town_n in_o plague_n and_o in_o the_o siege_n but_o that_o it_o may_v be_v all_o convey_v down_o entire_a and_o whole_a and_o undiminisht_v to_o follow_a age_n that_o the_o generation_n that_o be_v yet_o to_o come_v may_v praise_v the_o lord_n and_o to_o this_o end_n i_o shall_v set_v before_o you_o two_o thing_n 1._o god_n will_v be_v a_o gainer_n by_o it_o alas_o my_o brethren_n it_o be_v little_a glory_n we_o can_v bring_v he_o in_o ourselves_o and_o in_o our_o own_o time_n if_o we_o shall_v spend_v all_o our_o day_n in_o praise_v he_o they_o be_v short_a and_o will_v be_v do_v upon_o the_o sudden_a but_o if_o we_o can_v take_v course_n that_o all_o the_o generation_n that_o be_v yet_o to_o come_v shall_v praise_v he_o for_o the_o mercy_n which_o we_o have_v receive_v as_o long_o as_o the_o world_n last_v this_o will_v be_v a_o great_a advantage_n and_o true_o if_o we_o love_v he_o &_o be_v affect_v with_o his_o mercy_n as_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v we_o will_v endeavour_v what_o we_o can_v to_o raise_v and_o to_o advance_v the_o little_a tribute_n of_o
