The glory of goodness. The goodness of God celebrated; in remarkable instances and improvements thereof: and more particularly in the redemption remarkably obtained for the English captives, which have been languishing under the tragical, and the terrible and the most barbarous cruelties of barbary. : [Six lines from Psalms]

We have been so called upon, Psal. 107.1, 2. O give Thanks unto the Lord, for He is Good; for His Mercy endureth for ever. Let the Redeemed of the Lord say so, whom He hath Redeemed from the Hand of the Enemy. Behold, some that have been remarkably the Redeemed of the Lord, are at this Day to Say so; and we are invited now to join with them when they Say so.
