something_o brief_o concern_v the_o present_a state_n of_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n and_o what_o may_v be_v expect_v from_o it_o in_o matter_n of_o prudence_n none_o but_o weak_a and_o dull_a or_o deprave_a soul_n will_v expect_v mathematical_a demonstration_n and_o sensible_a evidence_n for_o all_o their_o action_n god_n by_o his_o providence_n have_v purposely_o so_o order_v the_o course_n of_o thing_n that_o his_o rational_a creature_n mankind_n shall_v be_v often_o necessitate_v to_o a_o close_a application_n of_o their_o mind_n and_o a_o kind_n of_o spiritual_n discern_v in_o the_o management_n of_o their_o own_o affair_n this_o faculty_n as_o may_v be_v perceive_v by_o experience_n if_o well_o dispose_v and_o careful_o observe_v extend_v much_o far_a in_o manything_n than_o man_n be_v able_a easy_o to_o demonstrate_v to_o other_o and_o yet_o even_o in_o those_o often_o discern_v very_o right_a but_o such_o indication_n may_v sometime_o be_v observe_v from_o a_o concurrence_n of_o various_a circumstance_n as_o be_v sufficient_a principle_n of_o a_o moral_a demonstration_n my_o pre-apprehension_n of_o our_o own_o occurrence_n have_v hitherto_o prove_v true_a in_o the_o event_n and_o i_o have_v now_o some_o indication_n to_o help_v i_o it_o be_v very_o apparent_a that_o there_o have_v be_v very_o few_o prince_n or_o great_a man_n in_o the_o world_n for_o some_o year_n or_o rather_o age_n who_o have_v manifest_v in_o their_o course_n of_o life_n any_o great_a and_o just_a apprehension_n of_o the_o business_n of_o man_n upon_o earth_n much_o less_o of_o the_o proper_a business_n of_o prince_n and_o person_n under_o their_o circumstance_n but_o have_v general_o both_o by_o their_o example_n and_o their_o management_n be_v more_o subservient_fw-fr to_o

sin_n both_o of_o prince_n and_o of_o people_n seem_v to_o have_v overgrow_v all_o the_o method_n of_o the_o divine_a providence_n for_o their_o amendment_n and_o it_o be_v also_o apparent_a that_o such_o be_v the_o posture_n and_o motion_n of_o humane_a affair_n at_o this_o time_n in_o europe_n as_o be_v plain_a indication_n that_o almighty_a god_n by_o his_o providence_n be_v produce_v some_o great_a alteration_n in_o this_o part_n of_o the_o world_n very_o sudden_o and_o what_o this_o be_v like_a to_o be_v be_v well_o and_o careful_o to_o be_v consider_v nor_o be_v it_o any_o

of_o war_n which_o be_v one_o of_o god_n judgement_n for_o the_o punishment_n of_o prince_n and_o nation_n and_o such_o as_o the_o present_a sinful_a state_n both_o of_o prince_n and_o people_n have_v

the_o french_a king_n in_o secret_a confederacy_n with_o the_o turk_n and_o the_o late_a king_n of_o england_n without_o any_o colour_n of_o justice_n mere_o to_o gratify_v a_o proud_a haughty_n insolent_a luciserian_n domineer_a humour_n and_o carry_v on_o with_o barbarous_a cruelty_n even_o upon_o his_o own_o subject_n and_o devastation_n abroad_o but_o the_o divine_a providence_n at_o

the_o judgement_n of_o god_n be_v for_o punishment_n of_o sin_n and_o reformation_n of_o manner_n so_o the_o common_a sinful_a state_n of_o all_o nation_n in_o these_o part_n and_o the_o general_a
