O Blessed Lord who in thine infinite mercy didst vouchsafe to plant a glorious Church among us now in thy just judgment hast permitted our sins and follies to root it up be pleased at last to resume thoughts of Peace towards us that we may do the like to one another Lord look down from Heaven the habitation of thy Holiness and behold the Ruines of a desolate Church and compassionate to see her in the dust Behold her O Lord not only broken but crumbled divided into so many Sects and Fractions that she no longer represents the Ark of the God of Israel where the Covenant and the Manna were conserved but the Ark of Noah filled with all various sorts of unclean Beasts and to compleat our misery and guilt the Spirit of Division hath insinuated it self as well into our Affections as our Judgments that Badge of Discipleship which thou recommendedst to us is cast off and all the contrary wrath and bitterness anger and clamour called in to maintain and widen our breaches O Lord how long shall we thus violate and defame that Gospel of Peace that we profess how long shall me thus madly defeat our selves lose that Christianity which we pretend to strive for O thou which makest men to be of one mind in an house be pleased so to unite us that we may be perfectly joyn'd together in the same mind and in the same judgment And now that in Civil Affairs there seems some aptness to a composure O let not our Spiritual Differences be more unreconcileable Lord let not the roughest winds blow out of the Sanctuary let not those which should be Embassadors for Peace still sound a Trumpet for War but do thou reveal thy self to all our Eliah's in that still small Voice which may teach them to echo thee in the like meek treating with others Lord let no unseasonable stiffness of those that are in the right no perverse obstinacy of those that are in the wrong hinder the closing of our wounds but let the one instruct in meekness be thou pleased to give the other repentance to the acknowledgment of the truth To this end do thou O Lord mollifie all exasperate minds take off all animosities and prejudices contempt and heart-burnings and by uniting their hearts prepare for the reconciling their Opinions And that nothing may intercept the clear sight of thy truth Lord let all private and secular Designs be totally deposited that gain may no longer be the measure of our Godliness but that the one great and common concernment of truth and peace may be unanimously and vigorously pursued Lord the hearts of all men are in thy hands O be thou pleased to let thy Spirit of Peace overshadow the minds of all contending Parties and if it be thy will restore this Church to her pristine state renew her daies as of old let her escape out of Egypt be so entire that not an hoof may be left behind but if thy Wisdom see it not yet a season for so full a deliverance Lord defer not we beseech thee such a degree of it as may at least secure her a being if she cannot recover her Beauty yet O Lord grant her Health such a foundness of Constitution as may preserve her from dissolution Let thy providence find out some good Samaritans to cure her present Wounds and to whomsoever thou shalt commit that important Work Lord give them skilful hands and compassionate hearts direct them to such applications as may most speedily and yet most soundly heal the hurt of the Daughter of Sion and make them so advert to the Interests both of Truth and Peace that no lawful condescension may be omitted nor any unlawful made And do thou who art both the wonderful Counsellor and Prince of Peace so guide and prosper all Pacifick endeavors that all our distractions may be composed and our Jerusalem may again become a City at unity in it self that those happy Primitive days may at length revert wherein Vice was the only Heresie that all our intestine contentions may be converted into a vigorous opposition of our common Enemy our unbrotherly Feuds into a Christian Zeal against all that exalts it self against the obedience of Christ Lord hear us and ordain Peace for us even for his sake whom thou hast ordained our Peace maker Jesus Christ our Lord. Prayer the II. O Most gracious Lord who dost not afflict willingly nor grieve the childrenof men whosmitest not till the importunity of our sins enforce thee and then correctest in measure we thy unworthy Creatures humblyacknowledge that we have abundantly tasted of this patience and lenity of thine To what an enormous height were our sins arrived ere thou beganst to visit them when thou couldest no longer forbear yet mastering thy Power thou hast not proportion'd thy vengeance to our crimes but to thy own gracious design of reducing and reclaiming us Lord had the first stroke of thy hand been exterminatings our guilts had justified the method but thou hast proceeded by such easie and gentle degrees as witness how much thou desired'st to be interrupted and shew us that all that sad weight we have long groaned under hath been accumulated only by our ownincorrigibleness T is now O Lord these many years that this Nation hath been in the furnace and yet our dross wastes not but increases and it is owing only to thy unspeakable mercy that we who would not be purified are not consumed that we remain a Nation who cease not to be a most sinful and provoking Nation O Lord let not this long-suffering of thine serve only to upbraid our obstinacy and enhance our guilt but let it at last have the proper effect on us melt our hearts and
