that_o humiliation_n repentance_n and_o reformation_n in_o a_o people_n have_v be_v sign_n of_o mercy_n towards_o a_o people_n it_o be_v true_a we_o have_v a_o instance_n in_o scripture_n of_o a_o most_o sweet_a and_o glorious_a reformation_n in_o matter_n of_o idolatry_n and_o prophanesse_n viz_o the_o reformation_n of_o josiah_n 2_o chron._n 35._o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o lord_n

the_o king_n displeasure_n second_o when_o god_n do_v afflict_v a_o people_n from_o his_o former_a displeasure_n yet_o there_o be_v common_o some_o new_a sin_n which_o come_v in_o as_o a_o mediation_n and_o so_o provoke_v god_n to_o remember_v the_o old_a score_n thus_o when_o god_n anger_n be_v stir_v up_o against_o israel_n the_o devil_n move_v david_n to_o number_v the_o people_n 1_o chron._n 21.1_o but_o hear_v we_o find_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o any_o new_a nationall_n sin_n viz_o any_o act_n of_o the_o state_n authorise_v sin_n and_o the_o good_a lord_n keep_v our_o parliament_n from_o such_o a_o thing_n we_o see_v rather_o that_o it_o be_v not_o because_o we_o have_v sin_v that_o our_o enemy_n quarrel_n with_o we_o but_o because_o we_o will_v not_o sin_n our_o enemy_n quarrel_n against_o we_o be_v not_o because_o we_o have_v be_v or_o be_v profane_a in_o our_o life_n idolatrous_a in_o our_o worship_n but_o because_o we_o will_v not_o be_v so_o for_o if_o we_o will_v join_v with_o they_o in_o these_o abomination_n we_o shall_v quick_o be_v at_o peace_n with_o they_o so_o that_o the_o very_a source_n and_o rise_v of_o the_o war_n be_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o
