preseruation and propagation of that pure orthodox sincere Religion which we yet enioy Which Religion as it is the breath and fragrant odor of our nostrils the delight and pleasure of our eyes the swetest harmony and musicke to our eares the most luscious hony and Manna to our pallats the most rauishing ioy and satisfactory contentment to our hearts the onely food the essence life and being of our soules the grand procurer of all our outward comfort and prosperity the onely Author of our peace and welfare the most transcendent glory and honour of our Nation the brazen wall the strongest fence and bulwarke of our kingdome the chiefest dread and terror to our Enemies the sole encouragement and comfort of our Confederates the fundamentall prop and pillar of our State the onely pawne and

these degenerating declining and reuolting times so if we once but slacke our hold or let it goe it being the very rocke on which our Church our kingdome and we all do rest and Anchor both Church and State our selues our soules and all we now poss●sse are wrackt and lost for euer Wherefore right Christian Worthies what euer becomes of other outward Priuileges and hereditary liberties the losse of which you cannot brooke with any patience where as the condescending vnto them alone would win your hearts and purses too be sure to hold fast and guard this maine foundation whereon our Church our kingdome and we ours stand against all Cozening vnder miners and Fauxes whatsoeuer who labour for to blow it vp If this bee safe our Church our King our Kingdome our liues our goods and liberties are all secure we need not feare what Spaine what France what man can doe vnto vs For then God is ours Christ is ours the holy Ghost is ours Angels and Men and all the hostes and creatures of heauen and earth yea earth and heauen it selfe and all is ours all these will take our parts plead our cause against our Enemies and if these be for vs who what can be against vs But if this be once endangered or rased but a little O then we sinke we droope wee perish our God our Crowne our peace our glory our wealth our liberties and all those sundry magazines and heapes of blessings which we now inioy

euen breake our hearts and crush our bones and sinke our soules in endlesse horror and despaire O therefore looke betimes to this Foundation which now begins to shake to totter and moulder by degrees settle but this a right and roote out all those domestique Romane and Arminian Pioners who dig so deepe and fast to vndermine it and then both Church and State will soone be settled in their former peace and happinesse O consider that the present totterings declinings and ruines of our State arise but from the wauerings wastings and backslidings of our Church Our State and kingdome now decline so fast and hasten to the period of their former glory because our Church our faith our loue our Religion lose their ground Our Realme is full of factions and diuisions because our Church is so Popery Arminianisme False doctrines sin and all prophannesse haue ouer-spred our Church yea wasted corrupted our Religion no wonder then if pressures greuances losses crosses penury misery beggery shame and a world of other euils do now annoy our State Our State Enemies are no other but our Church Enemies O therefore curbe purge out quite suppresse the Achans Errors and great Annoyances which trouble oppresse and vndermine our Church and our Religion and then our State and Kingdome will be settled and freed from those many pressures miseries and afflictions which they now sustaine and not before In vaine is it to mend the tiles and vpper roomes till the Foundation be repaired in vaine doe any labour to repaire the decke whiles the keele is full of leakes whiles the head and heart is sicke the other members cannot prosper Neuer looke that our decaying State should thriue or flowrish till our Church be healed and recouered Goe on and hasten therefore with this maine and weighty Cure and haue

filled with ioy and gladnesse with thanksgiuing and the voyce of melodie that you and I and all the people of the Land in the period and perclose of this your great Assembly may be sent away vnto our tents and habitations glad and merry in heart for all the goodnes that the Lord hath shewed vnto Dauid and Salomon to our King our Church our State to Israel we his people by this your happy and much
