That Renowned Evangelist of our Indians, the Reverend ELIOT, Preached the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, unto Philip, the Prince of the Wampanoags; but that Monster pulling of a Button on the Good mans Coat, said, He did not value what he Preached any more than that? and he hindered his Abject Subjects from Embracing the Christian Religion, that they might not become the Subjects of our Lord Jesus Christ. But what is become of them all? They rashly precipitated themselves into a Rebellious War against the English: And at Last, Philip fell into all the Distresses, that could be imagined. One of his own ⟨p. 31⟩Vassals then ran away from him, and informed the English where he was; They came upon him in his Thicket, just as he was telling his Counsellors of his Dream, that he was fallen into our Hands; while he endeavoured an Escape, an Indian Shot him through' the Heart, whereof he Died immediately; nor is any Number of his people now left any where in the World. So do the Rejecters of thy Grace, perish, O Lord!
