Yea, If we look upon our outward mercies, those liberties that we enjoy, there's scarce any Nation that 1hath the Commonalty of the people that live like men in comparison of ours; for the most part of all the Nations in the world, the generality of people are like slaves rather than any Free-men, their Governors rule over them with Tyranny; but here the Common people have Liberties, and God works mightily for them, for the vindicating of the Liberties, that they have both for their bodies and outward estates, and their souls likewise, and Oh! the Love that God hath shown unto us of late in working so miraculously for us as he hath done!
