A88385 A brief exposition upon the second Psalme. Wherein wee have that time modestly pointed at, (by the favourable direction of that significant then in the 5th v.) in which the father will in wrath to the (professing, refined) rulers of the world set his Sonne on Sion. And a description of the work the Son then performeth, both by his spirit, and his mysticall body. With usefull observations thereupon. Tending to clear up the scope of the whole Psalme. With application to our times. / By William Llanvædonon of P.H.C. Llanvædonon, William, of P.H.C. 1655 (1655) Wing L2619; Thomason E844_9; ESTC R210352 60,620 69

for_o prayer_n in_o this_o day_n it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o the_o father_n the_o prayer_n of_o the_o saint_n shall_v be_v chief_o and_o in_o the_o first_o place_n for_o the_o glory_n of_o christ_n that_o he_o may_v have_v heathen_n for_o a_o inheritance_n and_o utmost_a part_n of_o the_o earth_n for_o a_o possession_n and_o for_o vengeance_n and_o ability_n to_o execute_v the_o wrath_n of_o

against_o the_o heathen_n rage_n and_o the_o king_n open_a profaneness_n in_o set_v themselves_o against_o their_o lord_n so_o they_o now_o pray_v as_o zealous_o against_o the_o clandestine_v
