Parliament those shall not be saved from the storm for they want an Aristarchus on their side But let us with our Paul and with our Luke love and preserve our Aristarchus to the last for our Aristarchus both loves and serves us This is one English Glory an Aristarchy not an Aristocracy where many hold the Scepter but an Aristarchy where our Sovereign Lord and King is honour'd and obeyed of all as most excellent and supreme as the anointed of the Lord among us Whom we obey for the Lord's sake according to his Laws and the Laws of the Nation and for whom we pray to the Lord that he will keep him as the man of his right hand making him a Ruler according to his own heart Let us then cleave faithfully to our Paul to our Luke to our Aristarchus and there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of us Be what ye ought to be be your selves be true Englishmen and faithful Christians maintain the English Law and the Protestant Faith Give God the King and your Brethren their due and I bid you with St. Paul Be of good cheer for there shall be no loss of any mans life among you but of the ship The Popish Alexandria shall be broken in pieces The forepart sticks already fast the hinder part cannot hold long However We are all in the hands of God we are all at the Mercy of the Almighty The Tempest of his wrath is still upon us even upon us Our Sins continue it 'T is his Mercy we are not consum'd Repent we Fast we Pray we with St. Paul that the Angel of the Lord may be with us also strengthning us guarding us guiding us in the midst of these raging Waters which are ready to swallow us up Let us call upon the Lord Jesus as his Disciples did in the like case Mat. 8.25 Awake Lord save us we perish He seems to sleep and forsakeus because indeed we have forsaken him and have slept in our sins a long time Rise we to Repentance and he will rise to Salvation for he 's ordained of God to be Our Saviour to be our Refuge from the storm our hiding-place from the Wind our Covert from the Tempest even from this very Tempest from this Euroclydon which shall destroy his Enemies but shall not touch the hair of the head of any man that faithfully trusteth in him So understand we this Text And when the ship was caught and could not bear up into the Wind we let her drive Now with Tears of Repentance and with Hearts of Faith casting our selves into the Arms of his Gracious Providence let us with St. Paul bow our knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ and Pray for our selves and for the Whole Nation O God who doest whatever pleaseth thee in Heaven and in Earth in the Seas and in all deep places who for our Example and great Consolation didst so wonderfully save from the tempestuous Winds and Seas thy Servants Paul and Luke and Aristarchus and a great multitude with them for thy Mercy 's sake Look now we beseech thee with thy wonted pity upon thy Church which is among us Open the bowels of thy most tender compassions upon this sinful and ungrateful Nation Save us from the storms of Popery from the rage of Antichrist from the evils of our own sins which if thou savest us not shall prevail over us to utter destruction O Lord whatever loss or damage of Temporal State we may suffer suffer us not to make shipwrack of our Faith A hair of our heads shall not fall without thy leave O save our Souls for thy Mercies sake Save thy Flock even for thine infinite Mercies in Jesus Christ to whom with thy felf and Holy Spirit be praise and honour for ever and ever more and more without end Amen FINIS
