And as Every godly and good man doth press the divine majesty of God for his inestimable favour and ⟨image 3⟩grace in this heavenly victory, so he is to be called upon always here aster to follow your grace with like aid and consolation. that the thing godly begun, may take à gracious and blessed success, the old Amity and friendship restored that God by the creation of the world appointed to be in that one Realm and Island divided from all the world by imparking of the sea by natural descent of parentage and blood, one in language and speech, in form and proportion of personage one, one in manner and condition of living. and the occasion of all discord and hatred banished that the god scottish Englishman may confess and do the same at hom that he doth in foreign and strange countries Calling an English man all ways his countryman and studious to do him pleasure before any other Nation of the world. The Breach of ⟨image 4⟩this deuynd and Natural friendship is the very work of the devil by his wicked members that hath not taught Scotland only disobedience unto here Natural and Lawful prince and superior power the Kings majesty of England.
