Fourthly, because Beggars must not be choosers, nor may the holy One of Israel be limited, therefore resolve to wait the Lords leisure, till he have mercy upon you, Psal. 123.1, 2. with Hab. 2.1. I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. Stay with God in his good ways, at last there will be a vision of comfort. Hastiness of spirit loseth many a comfortable return of prayer. He that believeth, 1must not make haste.

Fifthly, in seeing iniquity abound, which thou canst not help and redress, yet be not senseless, but moan thy self & the evil times before God, by fasting and prayer. Thus our Prophet made his moan, Chap. 1.2, 3, 4. O Lord, how long shall I cry and thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save! why doest thou show me iniquity? &c. They that mourned for the abominations of Jerusalem in the time of peace, were marked in the foreheads in the time of trouble and desolation.
