Angell of the Lorde according to the aboundance of that admirable and Diuine wisedome wherewith God hath extraordinarily filled his Royall heart hath firmely setled and established the Arke of the Lord vpon those holy Mountaines of Sion on which euen from the most pure and primitiue dayes of the Church and from the Apostles themselues it had euer rested Which if their fancy might haue preuailed had long since not onely beene remooued from Sion but placed also as did the Philistims place it 1. Sam. 6 11. most basely and totteringly and disgracefully euen set vpon a Cart. In the happy establishing whereof though some fewe as the Eckronites haue bin iustly smitten of the Lord because they neither had right nor bare sincere loue to the Arke of God whose cure also hath beene sought that with most tender and fatherly care and compassion but such is the zeale of opposition and predominancy of Popularity and contentious humors that by no demonstrations of reason will they be perswaded no not when they are indeed perswaded by no authority will they be mo●…ed no not by that Sacred and Soueraigne which God himselfe hath appointed in many of those affaires to bee the very Canon and rule of right though some fewe of these I say may repine heereat yet shall it euer be the honour yea the felicity and safety also of our Soueraigne to haue those holy Aarons to support his Princely hands and this shall euer be reckoned as a speciall and as it is in truth euen a rare blessing of God vpon this Church and Kingdome by all those whosoeuer not in shew but in sincerity and truth wish to see peace in Sion and prosperity in Ierusalem I must in silence passe by many other and great blessings which by the meanes of our SALOMON are heaped vpon vs. But let my tongue cleaue to the roofe of my mouth if I forget that one most memorable happinesse which wee all receiued by him on that fift of Nouember That one day shall be for euer a most glorious Tro haeum and euerlasting Monument both of his most blessed and vnspeakable Wisedom and of the infinit blessings which by him we haue all receiued By it wee enioy not onely our Goods our Lands our Liuings our Liberty our Religion but euen this that we liue and breath this day we owe it to him and to his wisedome It was not the Loue nor Loyalty of his though most louing and Loyall Subiects which preuented that sudden and secret blow that should at once haue dispatched and blowne vp all It was not the Prudence and vigilancie of those thrice-Noble woorthies of King Dauid the Golden pillers of Israel though a most wise and a most Honourable Senate All may and all willingly doe disclaime the praise of that day The whole honour of that most wonderfull and withall most happy deliuerance must bee giuen first to thee O most glorious and most gracious God and next after thee to thine annointed alone Thou didst fill his hart as thou didst sometime the hart of thy holy Prophet Daniel with wisedome frō aboue to Discouer the deepe and secret thinges and to know what is in darknesse And he being full of thy Spirit to the endlesse comfort of this Empire and of all his loiall subiectes discouered indeede that darke and secret speech that darke and secret Vaut that darke secret and hellish treason so kept off that imminent blow which would haue proued fatall to him to vs and to all his kingdomes The happinesse of that day of thy wisedome O gracious King our Histories and Chronicles shal commend our Lawes and Statutes shall record to all eternity Euery Citty Towne and Village euery Church in this Land euery degree of thy people from the tallest Caeder to the very Shrubbe shall sing and sound foorth thy Noble praise And as the Israelites did in honor of Iosiah euery Tribe and family shall praise thee apart and their Wiues apart The royall and princely Tribe of Iuda shall prayse thee apart and the holy Tribe of Leuie shall praise thee apart The Nobility shall praise thee apart the Gentry Commons shall praise thee apart The Students of a●…professions shal praise thee apart the Men of Warre and the Men of Peace shall praise thee apart yea euery House euery Family throughout all Israell shall praise thee apart We in this age will speake of thy praise to our Children our Children to their Childrens Children vnto all generations And if it were possible that we or our posteritie could bee silent herein yet the Magnificent and princely buildings and Monumentes in these two famous and renowned Citties the very wood and wals of these houses stones in these streets euen with their dumb eloquence would sing aloud and sound foorth thy Noble praise all which in their kinds are pertakers of that happines which vnder thee and by thee we then all receiued Iudge now with your selues if besides many and great blessinges which I haue purposely omitted for these so great and indeed inualuable blessings which by the happy meanes of our SALOMON we doe enioy we may not all most iustly say to him as did the Queene of Sheba to King Salomon Happy O King are thy people and happy are thy Seruants Shall I further here adde whereof this Queene is silent in that King of Israel that the wisedom of our SALOMON is an happinesse not onely to his owne people and Subiectes but euen to strangers also The gracious beames there of like those of the Sunne spreading themselues to far and forraine Countries yea to the vtmost Coastes of this and the other world To omit many other and euident proofes hereof euen that which beeing the chiefe if time would suffer ought not to bee omitted that with such constancy and zeale himselfe holds forth a glorious Lampe of Piety and true Religion vnto all Christian Kings and kingdomes performing heerein that which Gods spirite hath noted as the greatest part of wisdome the more wise the King was the more he taught them knowledge caused them to heare But omitting these let the honourable expedition now happily intended for Virginea be a witnesse enterprised I say not auspicijs but by the most wise religious direction and protection of our chiefest Pilot seconded by so many honorable and worthy personages in this State and kingdome that it may iustly giue encouragement with alacrity and cheerefulnesse for some to vndertake for others to further so noble so religious an attempt I may not stay in this straightnes of time to mention much lesse set forth vnto you the great and manifold benefits which may redound to this our so populous a Nation by planting an English Colony in a Territory as large and spacious almost as is England and in a soyle so rich fertill and fruitefull as that besides the sufficiencyes it naturally yealds for it selfe may with best conuenience supply some of the greatest
