But when God took mercy upon the people, he gave unto them David, a man after his own heart. He delivered him from danger, and took him out of the Lions mouth. He crowned him, and did set a crown of pure gold upon his head. David loved the people, he taught them the ways of God, he put down Idolatry, and destroyed the Groves, he set up a Tabernacle to the God of Jacob. Under him the people had great prosperity in their houses, and abroad, in their Vines, in their Corn, and in their Cattle, in time of Peace, and in time of War.

When it pleased God to send a blessing upon us, he gave us his servant Elizabeth ⟨p. 90⟩to be our Queen, and to be the instrument of his glory in the sight of all the world. Who is so blind which seeth not? who is so unthankful that remembereth not what things God hath wrought by her? who seeth not the glorious beams of the trueth? who seeth not the wonderful peace in which we have lived? who seeth not the wise and safe guiding of the people? one of those alone were a great blessing, but all together are such a blessing, as our Fathers before us never enjoyed so happily.
