On the Burning of the Woods.
Lord; I believe my SAVIOUR will shortly descend in Flaming Fire at and for the destruction of the Man of Sin. The Day of the Lord will burn like an Oven, and all that do wickedly shall be Stubble in it. A New Earth, wherein shall dwell Righteousness, will be the Consequence of this Tremendous Conflagration. Oh! That in That Day, I may find Mercy with the Lord! In the mean Time, why should I set my Heart upon an Earth, which is, none can say, How soon, to fall under the Burning Vengeance of GOD!
But there is One Illustrious Creature of GOD, which it would be strange, if it should be forgotten by our Husbandman.
The SUN.
The SUN ariseth,— Man goeth forth unto his Work, and unto his Labour, until the Evening.
