Therefore it is good to take occasions, as •ee have one ministered this day, to call to •ind the former dealing of God to us, in the •un-powder-treason, and other Deliverances; which we have had several occasions upon •is day to speak of. And (to come nearer •ur selves) let us stir up our hearts to thankfulness, which is the main end of this day; •nd among the rest for our gracious Prince, •hat God hath delivered him as the 3. Children in the fiery Furnace, they were kept, and •reserved untouched of the fire: so God hath •reserved him in the fiery Furnace. The not •eing thankful for these things, will be a •eanes for God to lay us open to his, and our enemies. Therefore let us make use of this •ay, especially to stir us up to thankfulness. To go on.
