And blessed be God, and his Majesty that hath sent us another Nehemiah, 1to build up the walls of Jerusalem, and to procure that the Portion of the Levites should be given them.2 Give me leave (Right Honourable) to put you in mind, that this also belongeth to your Care, to Cooperate with Christ in bringing his People out of the Romish Captivity; And if to help away a poor Captive out of Turkey hath been Honourable to some Public Ministers: What shall it be to help to the enlarging of so many thousand souls out of the bondage of Mens Traditions, and gaining to his Majesty so many entire Subjects, your ⟨p. 99⟩wisdom (my Lord) is such, as it needeth not to be advised; and your Zeal as it needeth not to be stirred up: yet pardon me one word, for the purpose of helping Christs People out of Babylon.
