a_o invitation_n to_o a_o solemn_a day_n of_o humiliation_n viz._n the_o three_o day_n of_o the_o seven_o month_n 57_o to_o the_o lord_n people_n in_o the_o three_o nation_n who_o be_v sensible_a of_o the_o great_a dishonour_n of_o god_n and_o desire_v to_o approve_v themselves_o faithful_a to_o god_n and_o his_o work_n in_o this_o day_n of_o division_n and_o apostasy_n the_o lord_n god_n by_o a_o series_n of_o remarkable_a and_o extraordinary_a providence_n have_v for_o several_a year_n give_v occasion_n to_o his_o people_n throughout_o these_o three_o nation_n as_o to_o remember_v and_o praise_v he_o for_o his_o wonderful_a gracious_a deal_n so_o to_o make_v inquiry_n into_o his_o wise_a and_o good_a end_n with_o the_o external_a cause_n of_o the_o late_a strange_a and_o sad_a transaction_n among_o we_o and_o of_o the_o lamentable_a and_o miserable_a effect_n already_o appear_v and_o which_o must_v further_o unavoidable_o follow_v if_o the_o lord_n rich_a grace_n even_o beyond_o our_o apprehension_n do_v not_o prevent_v we_o also_o observe_v both_o in_o ourselves_o and_o other_o too_o too_o little_a sense_n of_o the_o great_a dishonour_n of_o our_o good_a god_n the_o burden_n of_o reproach_n and_o rebuke_v of_o christ_n his_o cause_n kingdom_n people_n way_n and_o most_o glorious_a work_n lie_v under_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o great_a sin_n of_o all_o sort_n of_o

useful_a for_o the_o recovery_n of_o his_o people_n and_o these_o nation_n out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o their_o persecutor_n and_o oppressor_n we_o say_v upon_o these_o consideration_n be_v meet_v together_o to_o seek_v the_o face_n of_o god_n desirous_a to_o prove_v what_o be_v that_o good_a and_o acceptable_a will_n of_o he_o it_o come_v into_o our_o heart_n to_o set_v a_o part_n one_o or_o more_o solemn_a day_n to_o humble_v our_o soul_n for_o our_o own_o and_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o god_n people_n which_o may_v provoke_v the_o eye_n of_o his_o glory_n as_o also_o for_o the_o abomination_n of_o this_o day_n and_o likewise_o to_o wrestle_v with_o the_o lord_n for_o the_o great_a thing_n of_o his_o name_n his_o son_n and_o zion_n for_o which_o purpose_n we_o have_v agree_v
