1I shall conclude the first part of the Petition with a short word of Exhortation unto this Honourable Assembly. *Those things which God worketh in us, and bestoweth upon us by his Grace, he also requireth of us by his Command: Sometimes he promiseth to turn us, sometimes he commandeth us to turn to him: Sometimes he biddeth us put away ⟨p. 37⟩sin, and sometimes he promiseth to take it away from us. *In the one showing us what is our duty, and in the other where is our help. And as this latter consideration calleth upon our Faith to pray: so the former upon our obedience to work. I shall therefore (Right Honourable) humbly offer a double Exhortation unto all of you.
