we still pray to God and if we take the Word in a good sense what if we call it Conjuring Add but it's adjunct Holy and 't is not the worse for 't but the better For by such Invokings do the Faithful more certainly bring down Mercies to themselves from Heaven than Negromancers Apeing such Divine Invokings call up the Devil by their Enchantments and Charmes forasmuch as the Devil is a Liar from the beginning but Christ is the God of Truth who will never falsifie his Word True God heareth not Sinners that is to say Heathenish Idolaters Publicans such as sin on resolvedly who in Scripture stile are call'd Sinners by way of Emphasis because they sin without remorse and come what will come are not concern'd but him that renounces his sins heartily and prays in Faith Him the God of all Mercies delights to hear and by this way may a devout Mariner when he can struggle with Winds and Storms no longer wrestle with him who appear'd to Jacob at Peniel and hope to gain a Blessing even in the midst of Winds Tempests Thunders Storms Tornado's This I have insisted the longer on because the Mariner being very often in Dangers-mouth had need learn to Pray he above all Men. And my Advice t' ye is Lastly To take care that the first thing you do when you are come home or arriv'd at your desir'd Haven with Ships of Delight as Job calls them you forthwith go from your Laden Ships to the House of the Lord there to sing a new Song as Men come from the Dead to God your Saviour not forgetting withal to bring a Thank-Offering to his Altar For such bringing an Offering of Thanksgiving for Blessings receiv'd is a part of the Religion of Nature Adam had he continu'd in Innocency must have so done brought I mean the choicest Fruits that his Paradice could afford to the Panaiim that is to say the Presence-Place or the especial Arbour in the midst thereof God meeting him there at set times suppose on Sabbath-days and lifting them up towards Heaven as a Theruemah or Heave-Offering have Prais'd him with Heart and Voice which the Psalmist calls an Higgaian for all the Benefits he enjoy'd by the Gift of his Creator only For sure it is that our Blessed Saviour hath not taken away the Religion of Nature by coming into the World but taken away only the Damnatory Power of the Law of Works instituting Rites as Prayers and Sacraments knowing that our Duty to God the Father that is Living according to the Religion of Nature is still in force for our aid and help than by the Propitiatory Sacrifice which is Himself offer'd up to Death on the Cross for Mankind taking Care that our Duty which is too too imperfect alas to be pleaded at the Throne of Justice may pass at the Throne of Mercy and be accepted for his sake as if it were Perfect and such as Adam ow'd to his Maker before he sinn'd It is certain that a Minchah Parum we are to bring still in Thankfulness for all the Blessings we have as the Primitive Christians when they came to the Sacrament in the Aples Days of which their Love Feasts were made did such Minchah or Oblation being call'd Pure in Contradistinction to the Bloody Sacrifices in the Type of which the Death of Christ which is the only true Propitiation for Sins is the Fulfilling and the exact Completion so that we may rest satisfy'd in this that such an Offering or Oblation of Thanksgiving is exceedingly acceptable to God the Father thro' Jesus Christ our Lord and such as will move God to bless us and cause us to prosper in all we do as if he were Atoned and render'd Propitious by them the defects of the Religion of Nature being taken away by the Worthiness of Christ's Death Now no more shall I add but that my hope is my Intention and Design being Pious it will have good success accordingly I shall give off here only recommending to you all the words of the Psalmist in the 107th Psalm They that go down to the Sea in Ships that do business in great waters these see the works of the Lord and his wonders in the deep For he commandeth and raiseth the stormy wind which lifteth up the waves thereof They mount up to the Heaven they go down again to the Depths their Soul is melted because of trouble They reel to and fro and stagger like a drunken man and are at their wits end Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble and he brinketh them out of their distresses He maketh the storm a calm so that the waves thereof are still Then are they glad because they be quiet so he bringeth them unto their desir'd Haven O that men would praise the ●ord for his goodness and for his wonderful works to the children of men 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Habes hic lector amice ut impleatur pagina Griphum nauticum quest postliminio eo quod Typographus descripsit male denuo editumlatime sed non inconcinn●m ut profiscine loquar oeu ineptam Explicationem ejus TV mihi die verax eris mihi magnus Apollo Cernam quo tractis stans Fixum Sydus Olympi Quantum i●er ut noscam perago vagus Erro per undas Cum Transversa Navi tranans peto littora Mundi Hunc lector si scire velis de nocte profundâ Liherat Occiduus Liniator nomine Griphum EXPLICATIO Nil cùm subdola Acus poterit Jovis Satrapa nil Hic cape Nauta Aenigma brevi nec longius erra Astra Globo possint cùm Erecto Schemata nosci Planis esse etiam fidè depicta Tabellis Totum quin vicibus ter Septem quinque per Annum Noctibus appingas Mediis quà Linea conslat Prima inter Plures Arcton quae tangit Austrum Juxta Aequatoreni Tropicos interque habebis Nunc certum quasi Stans Fruere Citus utere puncto In quo Stellarum cerni Distantia possit Sydera quando micant at primis Noctis in Horis Nec Cynosura minùs dubiè te diriget usquam Ne tardes adhiber Momentum scilicet Alas FINIS
