BUT, as All Sorts have come under the Deadly Strokes of this Time, so the Voice of GOD unto Each ⟨p. 15⟩of them should be more Particularly considered by all the Survivors. The Deadly Strokes have been Decimations used by a Sovereign GOD, upon Rebellious Legions; and all we that are Spared, should hear what His Blows upon Some, do Speak unto us All. By Aged Ones, that have had their Grey Hairs dyed in their Blood, GOD Speaks to Old Men, Oh! See that your Hoary Heads be found in the Way of Righteousness! By such as have been cut down in the Flower of their Youth, GOD Speaks to Youth Men, Oh! Make Haste, and no Longer Delay to ke• the Commandments of your God! By the Little One whose Brains have been dashed out, by the cruel Proselytes of Babylon, GOD Speaks to Children; Oh! Do you betimes fly to Me, and get under the Shadow of My Wings! Nor have the Handmaids of the Lord been unspoken to, in the horrid Things which their Sex has met withal. GOD Speaks to them; Oh! […] your Main concern, to be Espoused unto your only Saviour!
