The greatest blessing which God giveth to any people, is a godly Prince to rule over them. The greatest misery that can fall upon a people, is to have a godly Prince taken from them. For by a godly Prince he doth so rule the people as if God himself were with them in visible appearance. The Prince walketh in the ways of the Lord: the Nobles follow the steppes of the Prince: & the people fashion them selves to the example of the Nobles. The face of a godly Prince shineth as the Sun beams, and bringeth joy and comfort to his subjects.

When the Lord was displeased with ⟨p. 87⟩the people of Israel, he took Samuel from them, & gave them Saul to be their King. Saul did wickedly, without Justice, without Mercy. He devoured the people like a Lion, he overthrew the tabernacle, and slew the Priests. Then was there no Revelation: None that did Prophesy, or care for the name of the Lord.
