Humiliations followed with deliverances. A brief discourse on the matter and method, of that humiliation which would be an hopeful symptom of our deliverance from calamity. : Accompanied and accommodated with a narrative, of a notable deliverance lately received by some English captives, from the hands of cruel Indians. And some improvement of that narrative. : Whereto is added a narrative of Hannah Swarton, containing a great many wonderful passages, relating to her captivity and deliverance.Humiliations follow'd with deliverances.

It was a Prophecy concerning, The Daughter of Zion, in Isa. 3.26. She being Desolate, shall sit upon the Ground. When Zion was Desolate, by the Roman Conquest, (unto which this Prophecy might Extend) there were Coins made in Commemoration of that Conquest, and on those Coins there was a Remarkable Exposition of this Prophecy. On the Reverse of those Medals, which are to be seen unto this Day, there is, A Silent Woman sitting upon the Ground, and leaning against a Palm-tree, with this Inscription JUDEA CAPTA. Nor was any Conquered City or Country, before this of Judea, ever thus drawn upon Medals, as, A Woman sitting upon the Ground. Alas, If poor New-England, were to be shown upon her old Coin, we might show her Leaning against her Thunderstruck Pine tree, Desolate, s•tting upon the Ground. Ah! New England! Upon how many Accounts, mayst thou say with her, in Ruth 1 13. The Hand of the Lord is gone out against me!
