Behold, and kiss the feet of his Mercy, we are delivered by Jesus Christ from all these miseries and mischiefs. Oh let us not voluntarily call upon ourselves, a worse then all these, our own Unthankfulness. Let not Christ say, Ingrate Anglia, ne ossa quidem mea habes: Unthankful England, thou hast not so much as (my bones) the prints, and sensible impressions of these favours in thy memory. Thou hast shut thy Saviour out of thy mind, and buried him in neglectful oblivion. Take heed, least in a just quittance, he exclude thee from his thoughts, and forget to do thee any more good: Least he take away his Name, his Glory, his Light, his Gospel, from thee; and bestow it on those unchristened borders, where now his great Majesty is not adored.
