To the KING , The Humble Address of John Pennyman . The BLESSING and PEACE of GOD , Which passeth all Understanding , Be with the KING for evermore .

THE Way for the KING to obtain it , is , not only to watch against the Evil of His own Heart , but to be a Dread and Terror to all Evil-doers with whom He is concern'd , both at Home and Abroad ; and let the KING be so known to be a hater of all Wickedness , that no Debauched or Vile Person shall dare to ask any Place or Favour at his Hands ; assuring themselves , that none but Lovers of Sobriety , Vertue , and Goodness , shall be well accepted of Him : So shall the KING render to the most High GOD , according to the great Benefits He hath received , and the Nation shall have cause to Bless and Praise the LORD that ever He came to be KING over them .

The Prayers of the Honest-hearted are truly for the KING , that a Good and Right Spirit may guide Him in all His Ways , that He may have Victory over all His Enemies both within and without , and that the Wisdom of Solomon may be given to Him ; So shall Truth and Righteousness flourish in his Days . And inasmuch as the KING hath shewed Mercy to the worst of his Enemies , ( and not followed the Exmple of those before Him , who with such horrible Cruelty took away the Lives of so many Men , and also Women ) therefore shall Mercy be shewed to Him for evermore .

And as there was a Heart set to pray for His safe Return from Ireland hither again ; even so there is this Thanksgiving-Day , a rendring Praises to the LORD , for the KING'S great and wonderful Deliverance from thence ; believing that his outward Life , inward Vertue , and Zeal for Righteousness , shall be the Means of these Nations Preservation , if they turn from the Evil of their Ways .

Oh! that the KING and QUEEN would set their Hearts , both by Words and Example , to bring down the Pride of this People ; it abounds to the Grief of the Sober-minded , and will bring Destruction , if not prevented by Repentance and Amendment : Therefore in all humility , my humble Request to the KING and QUEEN , is , That Vertue , where-ever it is seen , may be incouraged ; and all Vice disliked and detected : So shall They be truly Honourable , and prosper in all Their Undertakings . Which is earnestly desired by one that is a true Lover of Them , and of all that seek the Advancement of that Kingdom which never fades away .
