Our Swords Are In God's Hands, And

Weeds And Nettles, Briars And Thorns, Have Thriven Under Your Shadow, Dissettlement And Division, Discontentment And Dissatisfaction, Together With Real Dangers To The Whole.

Ye May Have Skill In The Nature Of Things, Yet Nature Can Do More Than All Physicians Put Together; And God Is Far More Above Nature.

We Study The Glory Of God, And The Honour And Liberty Of Parliament, For Which We Unanimously Fight, Without Seeking Our Own Interests... I Profess I Could Never Satisfy Myself On The Justness Of This War, But From The Authority Of The Parliament To Maintain Itself In Its Rights; And In This Cause I Hope To Prove Myself An Honest Man And Single-hearted.

Sir, What Can Be Said Of These Things? Is It The Arm Of The Flesh That Hath Done These Things? Is It The Wisdom And Counsel, Or Strength Of Man? It Is The Lord Only. God Will Curse That Man And His House That Dares To Think Otherwise. Sir, You See The Work Is Done By A Divine Leading. God Gets Into The Hearts Of Men, And Persuades Them To Come Under You.

My Prayer Is That God Give Me No Longer Life Than I Shall Be Glad To Use Mine Office In Edification, And Not In Destruction.
