there_o be_v yet_o one_o thing_n that_o heighten_v the_o deliverance_n and_o that_o be_v that_o after_o the_o burden_n have_v lie_v so_o long_o upon_o our_o back_n that_o it_o shall_v then_o be_v remove_v when_o our_o misery_n be_v at_o the_o high_a pitch_n in_o the_o superlative_a degree_n the_o addition_n of_o more_o misery_n can_v scarce_o have_v make_v we_o more_o miserable_a who_o be_v then_o more_o welcome_a than_o a_o deliver_v when_o a_o goliath_n be_v in_o arm_n against_o israel_n who_o more_o acceptable_a than_o a_o david_n who_o part_n our_o brethren_n have_v so_o well_o act_v as_o that_o i_o be_o sorry_a for_o nothing_o more_o than_o that_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o reward_v they_o we_o be_v a_o long_a season_n in_o the_o furnace_n but_o the_o seasonableness_n of_o the_o deliverance_n make_v we_o forget_v all_o former_a misery_n barclay_n say_v animorum_fw-la barclay_n icun_fw-fr animorum_fw-la that_o war_n never_o last_v so_o long_o in_o england_n as_o in_o other_o land_n costly_n experience_n tell_v we_o this_o be_v rather_o a_o fable_n then_o a_o chronicle_n you_o can_v think_v but_o that_o we_o escape_v from_o scythian_a cruelty_n when_o we_o be_v like_a to_o be_v bring_v into_o a_o unworthy_a servitude_n and_o virtue_n be_v like_a to_o become_v a_o slave_n to_o those_o that_o have_v sell_v themselves_o to_o viciousness_n now_o i_o hope_v you_o will_v say_v if_o these_o thing_n deserve_v not_o a_o observation_n and_o a_o perpetual_a commemoration_n to_o the_o honour_n of_o that_o famous_a kingdom_n the_o world_n will_n call_v unthankful_a come_v

render_v when_o we_o be_v in_o affliction_n the_o first_o thing_n be_v prayer_n and_o be_v deliver_v the_o next_o must_v be_v praise_n so_o that_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o there_o be_v no_o
