remember_v it_o without_o such_o affection_n as_o be_v suitable_a to_o such_o a_o remarkable_a deliverance_n which_o be_v the_o second_o part_n of_o this_o discourse_n ii_o we_o ought_v to_o reflect_v frequent_o upon_o our_o wonderful_a deliveronce_n from_o those_o apparent_a danger_n wherewith_o we_o be_v compass_v and_o consider_v what_o the_o remembrance_n of_o it_o require_v of_o we_o there_o

who_o without_o the_o help_n of_o our_o deliverer_n may_v have_v do_v what_o they_o please_v with_o we_o no_o body_n sure_o can_v think_v of_o be_v in_o such_o a_o condition_n with_o any_o satisfaction_n and_o therefore_o i_o must_v conclude_v we_o all_o own_o the_o great_a mercy_n of_o god_n to_o we_o in_o a_o most_o seasonable_a deliverance_n let_v we_o see_v how_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v affect_v with_o it_o which_o be_v a_o subject_a very_o large_a and_o copious_a but_o it_o may_v suffice_v to_o suggest_v these_o four_o thing_n to_o your_o christian_a consideration_n first_o 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 may_v live_v to_o the_o praise_n and_o glory_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o mercy_n towards_o we_o four_o and_o then_o we_o may_v learn_v hereby_o to_o place_v our_o trust_n and_o confidence_n in_o the_o same_o mercy_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v i._o there_o can_v be_v no_o dispute_n of_o the_o first_o of_o these_o that_o the_o praise_n of_o god_n ought_v to_o be_v continual_o in_o our_o mouth_n 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 undutiful_a murmur_n repine_n and_o complaint_n as_o too_o many_o mouth_n be_v fill_v withal_o which_o will_v be_v quite_o silence_v if_o we_o will_v make_v it_o our_o business_n as_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o think_v how_o much_o we_o owe_v to_o god_n and_o what_o thanks_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v give_v continual_o for_o the_o deliverance_n he_o have_v wrought_v for_o we_o and_o for_o all_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

out_o of_o our_o mind_n for_o we_o owe_v the_o happy_a liberty_n we_o now_o enjoy_v of_o worship_v god_n here_o together_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o gospel_n unto_o that_o deliverance_n 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 have_v atcheive_v how_o vast_a be_v the_o obligation_n which_o by_o these_o thing_n he_o have_v lay_v upon_o we_o can_v we_o think_v that_o we_o have_v ever_o do_v enough_o for_o he_o who_o have_v

with_o divine_a honour_n when_o they_o be_v dead_a how_o can_v this_o nation_n then_o do_v less_o than_o own_v he_o for_o their_o king_n who_o have_v be_v their_o deliverer_n from_o slavery_n both_o
