A66752	Ecchoes from the sixth trumpet. The first part reverberated by a review of neglected remembrances, abreviating [sic] precautions and predictions heretofore published at several times, upon sundry occasions, to forewarn what the future effects of divine justice would be, as soon as our sinnes were full ripe,if not prevented by timely repentance : most part of the predictions have been already seen or heard verified, both by the author yet living, and by many others, who observed at what times, in what manner, upon what persons, and in what places they were literally or mystically fulfilled : collected out of the said authors printed books, who conscienciously [sic] observed on what divine prophesies the said predictions were grounded, as also God's late frequent intermixture of judgments and mercies, to reclaim this generation.	Wither, George, 1588-1667.	1666 (1666)	Wing W3155; ESTC R38724	102,560	226

Or nourishments of Pride But be remembrances to show The folly of that deed By which man fell and fell so low As those base Rags to need The Second Temporary Hymn A Temporary Hymn for the First Day of the Week commonly called the Lords-Day or Sunday GReat Lord of Time great King of Heav'n Since weekly thou renew'st my dayes To thee shall daylie thanks be giv'n And weekly Sacrifice of Praise This day the Light Time's eldest born Her glorious Beams did first display And then the Evening and the Morn Did first obtain the Name of Day 2 The Depth with Darkness then empal'd That out of which the World was made And which deep Waters thou hast call'd Upon this Day beginning had And as upon this Day it was In which Creation first begun So on this Day the work of Grace In ev'ry circumstance was done 3 For on this Day thy Christ arose And Victor over Death became This Day he conquer'd all his Foes And put them to perpetual shame Upon this Day it pleased thee Thy holy Spirit down to send That men with Gifts might furnish'd be Thy Gospel's Preaching to attend 4 This day therefore we set apart For holy Rest and holy Rites And ev'ry sanctified heart To celebrate this day delights Except thereto compell'd by need Works for the Body we forbear That in those works we may proceed Which for the souls health needful are 5 Therefore that now to thee oh Lord A due Oblation bring I may Thus to thine Honor I record And sing the Blessings of this day So let me sing so mind them still And all my life so thankful be That when my Course I shall fulfil I may acceptance find with thee 6 Discretion grant me so to know What Sabbath-Rites thou dost require And Grace my duty so to do That I may keep thy Law intire Not doing what should not be done Nor ought omitting fit to do Nor over-burth'ning any one With more then thou enjoin'st them to 7 But let me rest my body so That to my Soul I do no wrong Or in Devotion heedless grow What to my Body's rest belong That both in Soul and Body Lord I may still hallow ev'ry day According to thy Holy Word And have true Rest in thee for ay The Third Temporary Hymn For MONDAY THis Morning brings to mind oh GOD Thy forming of this Airy Sphere And spreading of that Orb abro'd Wherewith we now surrounded are It was the Fabrick which thy hand Vouchsaf'd upon this day to frame And bounding Waters under land From those which are above the same 2 This Airy Firmament both keeps All breathing Creatures here below From suffocation in those Deeps Whereon till then no wind did blow To us this Firmament convayes Those Dews and Show'rs which oft we need And all those pleasant Summer-dayes Whence Profits and Delights proceed 3 Yea by this Firmament we gain The Vision of refreshing Light And thereby do as well obtain The use of hearing and of sight For this dayes Workmanship oh Lord I praise thee now and humbly pray That I may thankfully record Thy daily Blessings ev'ry day A Personal Hymn for a Soveraign PRINCE BY me or by my Father's House Deserv'd it could not be That I or any one of us Obtained this Degree But GOD who dealeth forth his own As him it liketh best On me those Honours hath bestown Whereof I am poffest 2 Great hazards many undergo Such Titles to acquire Yet neither find content below Or means of rising higher What therefore can I less repay To him whose Gift it is Then otherwhile to sing or say Some such like Hymn as this 3 Let me O Lord my Diadem Unto thy Glory wear And be a Blessing unto them Who my Leige People are Let not thy favours make my heart To swell with wanton Pride Or from those Precepts to depart Which ought to be my Guide 4 But make me still in mind to bear From whom this Throne I had And that they my own Brethren are Who Ruler I was made Yea cause me evermore to heed That I and they are thine Although to serve the Publike need Their Goods and Lives are mine 5 Since ev'ry Subjects Cause to me Should equally be dear In Judgment let the poor man be As precious as the Peer And lest for them we snares may make At my chief Council-bo'rd Lord let me dayly Counsel take From thy Truth-speaking-Word 6 Those Traitors chase out of my Court Who dare pervert the Laws Or cause me by a false report To wrong an honest Cause And let thy Judgments them devour How high soe're they stand Who shall abuse my Royal Pow'r To hinder thy Command 7 Within my Realms let no man dare My Statutes to gainsay And let me live in as much fear Thy Laws to disobey So I and they whom thou on me For Subjects hast bestown Shall in each other blessed be And keep Sedition down 8 Preserve to me my Royal Dues And Grace vouchsafe me still My just Prerogative to use According to thy Will That evil men may dread my frown The Righteous comfort find And I obtain a better Crown When this must be resign'd Here ends the First Part of this Review to which a Second Part shall be added as GOD enables and permits A POSTSCRIPT THE uncertainty and changeableness of all temporal things make us accordingly mutable in our Purposes And whereas the Author of the several Books here abreviated intended a Retirement to a solitary Habitation in the place of his Nativity upon such Considerations as were expressed in the Preface of this Review his Friends resident in and near London not approving thereof have perswaded him to the contrary by making it probable That future Inconveniences would be thereby rather multiplied then diminished Now therefore by considering therewithall That where GOD's Judgments are most visible his Mercy will be there as much evidenced to all who love and trust unfeignedly in him he resolveth to continue where he is until he can stay there no longer lest he may bury himself alive by removing far from them by whose Charity GOD hath hitherto preserved him There are Faults escaped in the Imprinting or Transcribing of this Review which the Author 's late Sickness disabled him to take notice of The Readers are therefore desired to correct and amend them

Said gently thus Fear not stand still and see With patience how yeshall deliver'd be For these Egyptians who are now before Your eyes this day shall never fright you more And so befel it for next morn they saw Their foes lye dead of whom they stood in awe Drown'd by the waves and on that Sea-shore cast Through which they dry-shod and in safety past Yet both that with those Mercies which before GOD had vouchsaf●d with very many more Soon after seemed to be so forgot As if they them or him regarded not Now at this present time such is our case We are beleaguer'd as that People was With hazards upon every side confin'de With dangers both before us and behind Not onely having many Foreign Foes But some likewise at home as bad as those And worse within us also who have brought us To greater streights then all our Foes without us Those Jews we parallel in ev'ry thing Who injur'd Moses by their murmuring And are as thankless unto GOD who hath Here acted both in Mercy and in Wrath As many Wonders as by him were shown In Egypt when King Pharoh was o'rethrown Though they appear not such unto their sence Who shut the eyes of their Intelligence We as distrustful are as they as giddy In ev'ry Tryal too we are as ready To make a Golden Calf and to prefer That Idol before our Deliverer As much as they we long to repossess The Flesh-pots of our Lusts our Slavishness Which we did cry to be deliver'd from As soon as into any streight we come Yet GOD hath been to us and at this time Continues the same GOD he was to them Though their example which should make us better Hath made our Provocations much the greater He with us dealeth as a Father mild Whose heart is grieved by a froward Child And as he did with stubborn Ephraim When Anger and Compassion moved him To cry out thus What shall I do to thee For at a stand with us he seems to be Both by his frequently himself estranging And by his oft returning and oft changing His Judgments and his Mercies that we may Be changed and reform our crooked way We have this day though in another mode The daily Presence of our gracious GOD To lead us through that Wilderness of Sin In which we have a long time wandring been He guides guards and provideth us Supplies In all our wants though in another wise And is with us as wonderfully here As when his People brought from Egypt were The self-same Cloud and Pillar we have had Though varied and as effectual made To all intents and purposes as they Then had and to refresh us in the way Unto the Land of Rest we have that Rock Whereof they drank unto that purpose broke And though we oft stray shall to what we tend Attain when we are at our Journeys end If we believe and persevere to do So much as GOD enableth us unto For he requireth not from any one A scruple more then may by him be done Nor doth expect from any to receive More then what he at first or last shall give Because of all omissions and mis-actions He hath in full accepted satisfactions By his Deservings who secure us may From whatsoever Debts we cannot pay If on his Mediation we depend With Faith and Penitence at our lives end That Mark retaining which distinguisheth Christs chosen Sheep from Goats in Life and Death To wit that love to him and to each other Which knits for ever GOD and Man together This is that everlasting Gospel which We were foretold an Angel was to preach To ev'ry Kindred People Tongue and Nation Throughout the earth to bring men to Salvation And for a preparation thereunto He cry'd aloud as all true Prophets do Fear God to Him and to the Lamb give praise For now the hour is come these are the dayes Wherein his Judgments must be pour'd on them Who shall not glorifie and worship him By whom Heaven Earth the Fountains the Seas Created were and ev'ry thing in these The fear of God is that which first lets in True Wisdom that brings Penitence for sin By these within the heart of man is wrought Such Faith and Grace that they then taking root Do seasonably bring forth such blessed fruit As by degrees destroys the thorns and weeds Which either choak or starve the holy Seeds From whence the means of those enjoyments springs Whereof to us that Gospel tydings brings This method long ago was practised By John the Baptist when he ushered Christ and his Everlasting Gospel in By preaching of true penitence for sin And thereby did prepare before his face The way intended to soul-saving Grace Such Consequents as promis'd are to spring From Christ and his apostles publishing This Gospel whether it shall come abroad As preached in the ordinary mode Or by the Holy Ghost which oft conveighs The same by extraordinary wayes Are without fail to them vouchfaf'd for ever Who entertaine it and shall still endeavour Conformity sincerely that to do Which Grace and Nature them inables to But everlastingly it shall not be Preacht in this World For this believe must we That his Commission who Authorized Those men by whom it was first published Is nigh expir'd and that it shall not last One minute longer when that date is past Which will be in that Moment wherein all Shall die or changed be but sooner shall Be so to them who summon'd are away By Death before that Grand Assizes day If it be so let us take timely heed What Doctrine thence doth by result proceed For Christ himself is he who did predict The Judgments which we both feel and expect He is that Angel in a Mystery Who through the midst of the Heavens did flye T was he whom 'twixt the Heavens of the Law And Gospel many Prophets flying saw To bring the News and Means to every Nation Of Peace on Earth by reconciliation 'Twixt GOD and Man We have already seen Some of those Tokens which foretold have been To signifie to us the General Doom That should soon after their appearance come And should they be commemorated here It very evidently would appear That hitherward it speedily advances To them who heed well the known Circumstances In GOD's and humane Actings He hath pour'd The Viols forth whereby some are devour'd And some tormented yet most men grow more Blasphemous and more wicked then before And had we no sign else to predeclare The sounding of the Seventh Trump is near Save that and those Divisions which of late Republicks Realms and Persons separate From others and themselves we need not shew Another Symptome of what will ensue To hasten such Dooms among other Crimes Which are predominant in these our times One I have seen reiterated here With impudence in publick ev'ry year Which will not go unpunish'd though the Nation Hath entertain'd it with much veneration But I have yet no warrant to
