On March 14. 1689. The Lord Wharton introduced him to King WILLIAM; and Mr. Mather knowing that the king desired none but very short Speeches, only said, I Congratulate your Majesties happy Accession to the crown, and I Humbly Implore, your Favour to New-England.
KING. You may rest Assured, that I will show them all the Favour, which it is in my Power to do.
KING. You may rest Assured, that I will shew them all the Favour, which it is in my Power to do.
Ma. I may Humbly and Freely Speak it; The very Prayers of that People, will be of some Service to Your Majesty. They are a Good and a Praying People.
KING. I Believe, they are a Good People; But I doubt, there have been Irregularities in their Government.
