we_o ought_v so_o to_o remember_v the_o love_a kindness_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o never_o to_o fail_v to_o bless_v and_o praise_v he_o for_o it_o as_o long_o as_o we_o have_v a_o day_n to_o live_v second_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v very_o grateful_a to_o the_o glorious_a instrument_n of_o our_o deliverance_n three_o look_v upon_o ourselves_o as_o preserve_v on_o purpose_n by_o god_n that_o we_o

for_o the_o great_a thing_n he_o have_v do_v for_o we_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o unbecoming_a nothing_o more_o disingenuous_a and_o vile_a than_o instead_o of_o this_o to_o hear_v such_o

the_o blessing_n which_o by_o that_o mean_v we_o enjoy_v there_o be_v nothing_o can_v be_v more_o rational_a than_o this_o ii_o and_o one_o will_v think_v there_o shall_v be_v as_o little_a dispute_n about_o the_o second_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v high_o grateful_a to_o the_o glorious_a instrument_n of_o our_o deliverance_n for_o who_o come_v all_o man_n long_v the_o news_n of_o who_o

which_o have_v be_v follow_v with_o a_o very_a long_a train_n of_o labour_n and_o toil_n which_o his_o majesty_n have_v undergo_v and_o of_o marvellous_a success_n god_n have_v bless_v he_o withal_o for_o the_o confirm_v the_o peace_n and_o prosperity_n which_o be_v continue_v to_o we_o by_o his_o mean_n with_o how_o many_o difficulty_n have_v he_o wrestle_v through_o what_o hardship_n have_v he_o wade_v and_o to_o how_o great_a hazard_n have_v he_o expose_v his_o royal_a person_n both_o this_o year_n and_o the_o last_o that_o we_o may_v reap_v the_o peaceable_a fruit_n of_o they_o in_o

which_o we_o ourselves_o may_v have_v feel_v long_o before_o this_o time_n have_v not_o god_n raise_v he_o up_o to_o be_v our_o deliverer_n and_o strengthen_v his_o hand_n to_o maintain_v what_o he_o
