A87192 Londons charity inlarged, stilling the orphans cry. By the liberality of the Parliament, in granting two houses by Act, and giving a thousand pound towards the work for the imployment of the poor, and education of poor children, who many of them are destroyed in their youth for want of being under a good government and education, whereby they may be made serviceable for God, and the Commonwealth. Also this good work is much encouraged by the liberall contributions of many well-affected citizens of London, for the better carrying it on for the glory of God, the honor of the nation, and comfort of the helples poor. With a platform, how many officers needfull to govern 100 children in a work-house, with laws and orders for the schoolmaster to read to the children once a day for a time, afterwards twice a month, whereby they may be kept under a godly and civill government, to the great joy of good peopl. With other observations worthy the reading. / By S.H. a well-wisher to the nations prosperity, and the poors comfort.

as_o the_o scripture_n say_v and_o because_o he_o have_v not_o a_o favour_n to_o the_o poor_a man_n he_o lose_v the_o favour_n of_o god_n thou_o know_v not_o what_o a_o three_o war_n will_v produce_v

be_v able_a to_o pay_v and_o will_v not_o do_v it_o be_v the_o undo_n of_o many_o a_o poor_a man_n and_o his_o family_n which_o do_v occasion_n great_a poverty_n upon_o the_o nation_n 3._o they_o will_v endeavour_v to_o appoint_v friend-maker_n in_o all_o great_a parish_n of_o the_o nation_n that_o the_o mighty_a may_v not_o oppress_v the_o poor_a this_o be_v a_o work_n of_o great_a

with_o king_n pharaoh_n and_o it_o be_v his_o end_n throuwe_o and_o god_n say_v they_o that_o oppress_v the_o widow_n the_o fatherless_a the_o stranger_n the_o poor_a he_o will_v take_v away_o their_o

such_o as_o neglect_v to_o settle_v a_o short_a and_o speedy_a way_n to_o right_v the_o poor_a against_o their_o oppressor_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o good_a say_n of_o one_o that_o quick_a justice_n

out_o of_o hand_n for_o the_o peace_n and_o prosperity_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n for_o the_o honest_a rich_a and_o merciful_a and_o comfortless_a poor_a whither_o prisoner_n or_o other_o wait_v for_o a_o reformation_n as_o the_o thirsty_a ground_n for_o rain_n and_o indeed_o i_o must_v say_v there_o be_v as_o great_a need_n for_o the_o parliament_n to_o find_v out_o way_n and_o mean_n to_o
