To prove that it is more commodious unto the sonnes and daughters of men , to pray to the Lord in the full Congregation , then privately , to be by ones selfe , or with a few company .

Suppose I were in the publique Church , and have , as I have great need , to aske forgivenesse of my sinnes at the hands of my God , or to make my supplication to his Majesty , for some necessaries , either spirituall graces , or temporall benefits that I stand in great need of , it may be it will be Gods pleasure to heare another for me , and I for him , and through that respect , God to commiserate the present condition of us all .

For the answer of God to the last request of Abraham concerning Sodome and Gomorrah , was , If there , sayes God , bee ten righteous men within those two Cities , I will not destroy it for ten sake : yet let no man conjecture , that I by no meanes doe debar private prayers , for why , the word of God sayes , pray continually . And againe sayes , and Phineas prayed , and so the plague ceased : for prayer is the very Key that opens heaven gate : nay withall it is such a dart , the more a man or a woman doth use it , it further drives the Divel off from them ; so is preaching necessary withall , as wee have an old Proverbe in the Welsh , Good is the staffe with the crouch ; they should like man and wife goe hand in hand together , rather then to be separated one from the other .

Now to prove the Church to bee honoured before any other private place , according as the New Testament doth describe it , I cannot finde that our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ , not in all the New Testament , that he did eat but naturall food , like other children , untill he was twelve yeers of age ; then his father and his mother found him in the Temple , in the midst of the Doctors , hearing them , and asking of them questions . Assuredly if the Church were not to bee honoured before any other private place , our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ would aswell begun the good action or the great message of his Father in private places , assoone as the Church : but it is evidently seene , hee began it in the Temple , saying unto his Mother ; Knew ye not that I must goe about my Fathers businesse ?

Some men of the world will tell mee , that our Lord and Saviour Preached upon the Mount , and I doe in no wise contradict them , for the word sayes so likewise : but when did hee preach upon the mountaine , but the time that he durst not come into the Temple ? for a while before did the Jewes hurle stones at him , that his sacred person was driven to flie out of the Temple .

Againe , to prove that the Church is to be honoured before any other private place ; if our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ had come up street or downe street , and there to see folkes sell away Doves , our Lord and Saviour would have sayd no kind of thing unto them , but let them attend their market in the name of God ; but assoon as he espied them to sell away Doves in the Temple , he scourged them out , and told them , that his House was called the House of Prayer , and that they had made it a den of theeves .

Then thirdly , to prove it to bee more vertuous then private places ▪ read but 1. Cor. 11. 22. there the Apostle sayes , have yee not houses to eat and to drink in , why despise yee then the Church of God ? will you have mee to prayse you for this ? I say unto you ▪ I prayse you not . And in the last of the Colossians the same Apostle sayes , Let this Epistle be read in all the Churches of the Laodiceans .

And to prove the Church to be honored before any private place , if a man can beleeve historicall writings ; Titus Vespasian that great Emperour , forty yeeres after the crucifying of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ , did race the Temple at Jerusalem ; and at the racing of it , when hee came to one Room there , called Sanctum Sanctorum , the Holy of Holies , where none but the Priest once a yeere did enter into , he fell flat upon his face , and sayd , This place could not chuse otherwise to be , then the place where the most high God did dwell .

If any other doe thinke to make it appeare unto me , that private places are as vertuous , let them proceed : for that chosen vessel Saint Paul sayes , He that is filthy , let him be filthy still : I know they cannot prove it by Scripture , which is the glasse of Gods will , and the very pathway to salvation , and the direct way which the sonnes of men ought to teach , preach , and walk by . For further satisfaction to tender consciences , I refer my selfe to the Learned to describe it . Provided alwayes , that such Learned men doe detest Popery on the one side , and shun Heresie on the other side : for there be abundance of people in this age , did pretend to avoyd Popery , and fell into the gulfe of Heresie ; so that it may be well sayd of such people , with the words of the Poet , Incidit in Sillam qui vult vitare Charybdim . I doe not gainesay but that there is a private Church withall to bee allowed of : for S. Paul writes , Coloss. 4. 15. Salute the Brethren which are in Laodicea , and to Nymphas and the Church which is in his house . So that private serving of God is necessary , but not so commodious as the publick service in the Congregation ; for in the time of that divine exercise , we should all repair thither , to pray for our selves , and one for another , and God for us all . For we read of that godly woman Sarah , that she did wear all her best aray , and did put on all her rich jewels , when she did goe to worship the Lord in the Tabernacle . Was it the pride of Sarah that made her so to doe ? no , no it was to grace and beautifie the Lords house : she was pure within , and clean without : I would women in this age would imitate bu● part of her wayes and actions , if they could not performe the whole .

Now I will proceed to treat of the necessity of Baptizing of Infants , and the unlawfulnes of Rebaptizing of men or women either . Some men in this Country I heare there be , that say , that Baptisme is not requisite at all . I answer such men : That if our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ were to be obliged unto mortall men , that hee is more bound unto the very Turke , then to such persons as doe deny Baptisme : for why the Turk himselfe doth acknowledge that there was failings in his Prophet Mahomet , his great head ; and that there was no failings in that Prophet Jesus Christ , as hee tearms him . If Baptisme be not necessary , there were failings in Christ : for why ? because he suffered himselfe to be Baptized of Iohn in Iordan . That is not only to shew the necessity of Baptisme , but the obedience of Baptisme also .

But concerning the Rebaptizing of persons , I shall confute such men as hold it necessary , in the self same Chapter as they themselves doe ground it upon to be needfull or lawfull , or else I will bee sure to confute them with the words of the same Apostle they ground it lawfull on ▪ the words out of the Apostle that say , 19. of the Acts and the 2. verse : Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye beleeved , and they said unto him ▪ we have not heard so much whether there be any H. Ghost or no : and he said unto them , unto what were ye then Baptized ? and they said , Unto Johns Baptisme : then said Paul , John verilie Baptized with the Baptisme of Repentance , saying unto the People that they should believe on him which should come after him , that is one Jesus Christ : when that they heard this they were Baptized in the Name of the Lord Jesus : And when Paul had laid his hands on them , the Holy Ghost descended on them , and they spake with Tongues , and Prophesied , and all their men were about twelve in number .

Let all true professed Christians but marke the false ground of Anabaptisme ; Johns Baptisme , was , but as it were a Type of the Baptisme of Jesus Christ , for marke the words of the Apostle , in the fourth verse of the same Chapter , that Johns Baptisme was the Baptisme of Repentance onely , and that they should believe on him which should come after him , that is , on Iesus Christ , in whom is the fulnesse of the God-head bodily , and the fulnesse of Gods Spirit , and the fulnesse of Baptisme through Gods Spirit , and the fulnesse of Grace , and the fulnesse of all spirituall goodnesse whatsoever ; so that the then Baptisme of John , which was the Baptisme of Repentance , and no more , and the now Baptisme of Jesus Christ , was , or is like two wayes upon a Hill , and at the foot of the Hill meete into one : so that the then Baptisme of Iohn is as it were dissolved , and now included into the Baptisme of Iesus Christ , which is altogether perfect and sufficient : And therefore not to be wrought upon the Sonnes and Daughters of men , but at the very time , or few dayes after that Children be borne into the World , as before the number that were Baptized of Paul after they were formerly Baptized with the Baptisme of Repentance , as the Text sayes were about twelve in number .

And presently as soone as Paul had layd his hands on them the Holy Ghost descended on them , and they spake all manner of Languages , and withall prophesied . I wonder whether these yong Schismaticall Gamesters at Lanhazan , or elsewhere , in this Country , can doe the like : I believe their Leaders , Mr. DAVIS and Mr. MILES can scarce do it ; 't is great pitty but that the Noble Estates of the Land , to the intent that the soules of men and women should not be ensnared and deluded in this kinde any further , should be made acquainted of so great an abuse to Church , State , and Commonwealth : For if the Estates did allow of it , they would send a Command for all to doe it in generall , thorow out the whole Land ; therefore these abuses are acted unknown unto them . Circumcision as a type of Baptisme , S. Paul in the 7. Cor. verse 18. sayes , Is any called being Circumcised , let him not become Uncircumcised : as much as if the Apostle had sayd , Is any Baptised , let him not seeke to be Rebaptised : for if a man or woman doe suffer themselves to bee Rebaptised , they doe deny the Baptisme which they formerly received , and the first principles of the true Christian Religion .

Marke the words of the Apostle , 1. Cor. 7. 20. Let every man , sayes he , abide in the same calling wherein hee was called ; so that men or women being called by their first Baptisme , as they are to be Christians , and incorporated to be members of Gods true Church they should so remayn , until their souls were dissolved from their bodies , and their bodies from their soules , onely by vertue of the words of the Apostle in the sayd 20. verse as before , Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called .

Unlesse the sonnes and daughters of men will altogether follow the false doctrine of these yong Seducers , and make frustrate the words of that chosen vessell S. Paul , that wrote the very marrow of all the New Testament , the words of our Saviour only excepted .

The Anabaptists , it may bee , will alleadge to mee , that a Childe ought not to be Baptised until he be of age , and possessed with faith : Alas , poore men ! I answer them thus ▪ That as soone as the Midwife doth receive the Childe into the World , that very instant the Childe hath faith : what faith hath he ? the faith that the father and mother that begat him ▪ have or had .

Because I did write so much of Circumcision to bee a type of Baptisme , I know some particular men will alleadge and urge unto me the 1. Cor. ●1 . that Circumcision is nothing , and Uncircumcision is nothing but the keeping of the Commandements : T is true , every thing in the old Morall Law was abolished at Christs comming ; but the Apostle doth not say Baptising is nothing ; but hee might well enough say ▪ Rebaptising is nothing ; though wee were absolved from the curse of the Law at the comming of Christ , yet we are still bound to the obedience of the Law , and the Law stands still as a Schoolemaster to bring us to Christ : for our Saviour sayth in one place , I came not to destroy the Law or the Prophets , I came rather to fulfill them .

Though other Ceremonies were abolished at the comming of Christ , yet Circumcision was not quite abolished then : why ? Christ himselfe was Circumcised the eight day , it might bee abolished after ; for our Saviour tooke no Celestiall Discipline upon him untill he was twelve yeers of age , posing of the Doctors in the Temple : yea then was Circumcision abolished , and Baptisme to stand in the stead of it ever after .

See in what a dangerous condition those people are , that leave their Children Unbaptised untill they be of age : let them read Exodus 4. 24. how that the anger of the Lord was kindled against Moses because he left his Childe so long a time Uncircumcised : And it came to passe by the way , in the Inne , that the Lord met him and sought to kill him , verse 24.

Then Zipporah took a sharpe stone , and did cut off the foreskin of her son , and sayd , surely a bloudy husband thou art unto me , v. 25.

And she sayd againe , a bloudy husband thou art to mee , because of the Circumcision , verse 26.

Concerning the performance of our first Baptisme , wee are in a dangerous condition , unlesse God will look more upon the wounds of his dear son Jesus Christ , then any merits of our owne . For men and women at our Baptisme have entred into a Covenant to God for us , that we should be such and such , and we for the most part of us , are such and such , cleane contrary to this Covenant , so that if we will seriously consider , we have enough to doe to performe the Covenant of our first Baptisme , without provoking the Lord to anger to take upon us the second Baptisme , which is clean contrary to the word of God . But it is nothing in this age , with the sons and daughters of men ▪ to abridge Covenants , seldome or never at all doe they think upon them .

Concerning the breach of this Covenant , I have read in History , that Vladislaus King of Hungaria , and Prince of Transylvania , how he waged war with the Great Turk , and in processe of time being weary on both sides waging of warre , both parties agreed to compose the differences betwixt them to a peace ; the King of Hungaria being a Christian , the Turk a Mahometan : they both entred into a solemne Oath and Covenant , to dissolve both Armies , and to observe a League between them for so many yeeres ; the King of Hungaria took his Oath in Christ his Name , the Turk in Mahemets : after that both Armies were dissolved , and every man went home to his owne house in peace . A while after , Julian the Cardinall , an incendiary , ( even as incendiaries have fomented these unnatu●all warres in this Land ) perswades the King of Hungaria to abridge this Covenant , and againe to rise up in Armes against the Turk , telling the King of Hungaria that it was no sin against God to breake that Covenant with the Turk , because he was a Pagan ; so hee prevay●ed with the King of Hungaria that he rose up in Armes presently : so the Turk in defence of his Territories and Kingdomes , rose up in Armes withall ; and in the Brunt and heat of the Warre , the Turk espying the Crucifix in the Banner of the King of Hungaria , takes the Covenant out of his Pocket , and throwes it up towards Heaven , and sayes , O Christ , if thou beest the Living God , revenge not thy selfe upon me , for I never took any Covenant in thy Name , for I did alwayes deny thee to be an Eternall God ; but revenge thy selfe upon the King of Hungaria , that hath taken a Covenant in thy Name , and is not ashamed before thy face to break it .

Assuredly , our not performing of the Covenant of our first Baptisme , Covenant of our Mariages , and other ties that wee have taken upon us in this Land , t is to be feared that by reason wee have so oft times abridged them , that Turks , Pagans , and Infidels , will rise up in judgement against us .

In part of this weak and unworthy Labour of mine , as far as God hath given me a talent , I shall declare unto the World the unlawfulnesse of being covered in the Church , at the Divine exercise of Preaching the word of God to the people .

I will begin with the words of God himselfe Exod. 13. 5. Plucke off thy shooes from of thy feet , for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground : by vertue of those words , the words of the most High God ▪ I tell , O proud Belteshazzar , plucke off thy Hat from of thy head , for the words thou hearest are holy words . I doe not say but an old man may doe it , or a sick man may bee covered at that Divine exercise , for t is a case of necessity ; for King David did eat the Shew-bread , that was not lawfull for any to eat , but the Priest alone : God never sent any Prophet to reprehend him for it : why ? because David was necessitated so to doe at that time ; but as soone as he took the wife of Uriah , the Lord presently sent the Prophet Nathan to attaint him of High Treason , against the great God of Heaven and Earth , and to judge and condemne him in one word , Thou art the man .

There were fifty thousand of the Bethshemites slaine for looking unreverently upon the Ark of the Covenant ; and Uzzah was strucken dead by the hand of the Lord , for but touching the Ark , as you may read Chron. 13. 9. 10. And when they came to the threshing floor of Chidon , Uzzah put forth his hand to hold the Arke , for the Oxen stumbled . And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Uzzah , and he smote him because hee put his hand to the Arke , and there he died before God .

The Preacher is the Ark of the Covenant of the New Testament , and when hee preaches unto us of Gods judgements , wee should then pray in our hearts to divert those judgements from us ; and when he treats and speaks of Gods mercies , we should then pray in our hearts to participate of those mercies : you shall finde it in one place that S. Paul writes , that it is a shame for a woman to bee uncovered in the Church ; as much as if the same Apostle had sayd , that it is a shame for a man to be covered in the Church : therefore I beseech all those that love God , and the true Reformation of the Church of God , to reform this enormous abuse , lest wee should any further be evill spoken of and derided by Turks , Papists , Pagans , and Infidels , that are not enspired to make recognition of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ ; lest that their blind wayes should at the last day rise up in judgement against us ; for assuredly unlesse that this and other abuses that are now committed in the Church of God bee amended , we shall be in great danger to bee those , ( or like those ) that the Apostle Peter writes of , 1. Pet. 5. the two last verses , It had beene better for you never to have known the way of truth , then to know it and turne from it . For ye shall bee like a dog that turns againe to his owne vomit , or like a sow that is washed in the River , and goes wallowing againe in the mire .

I can in no wise bridle my tongue from speaking , nor with-hold my hand from writing of the wrongs that are now done unto certaine Clergy men , that taught and preached the Gospel in precedent times ; yet let no man conjecture that I by no meanes doe write of their sides in generall ; for I know , abundance of them would not bee contented to walke upon the Battlements of the Church , but did mount themselves up to the turrets of civill policy that did nothing belong unto them .

Some of them have been responsall for it before men already , and suffered , and therefore I shall conclude of such persons with the old Proverb , which sayes , de mortibus nil nisi bonum ; of the dead nothing but good . I take God to Reco●d , my Lord Generall CROMWELL , as his Excellency was going for Ireland , upon the walls of Tenbigh , told the Gentlemen there about him , I cannot perceive ( sayes he ) but this man is of the selfe same Religion as my selfe is of ; meaning my selfe .

For my owne part , I shall sooth no man , be he ever so great ; if his Excellency do agree to extirpe out of the Vineyard all the Clergy in times past , his Excellency is as wide from my tenents in Religion , as the East is from the West , but methinks as many of them should be thrust out of the Vineyard , as had evill will at Sion , and none of the rest : for to put them all out , we have no such warant , neither out of the Old nor the New Testament ; for in the Old Testament we read , that in the last request of Abraham to God , for Sodome and Gomorrah ▪ if there ( sayes God ) be ten righteous persons in those two Cities , I will not destroy it for the tens sake : But there was found there but one righteous Lot , and for that one righteous man , God had provided a Zoar a City of refuge , during the time that the Lords anger was kindled against those two great Cities in destroying of them with fire and Brimstone from his Celestiall habitation : And now it should seeme that in a small measure his Majesty is offended with certaine men that he called to be his Ministers and especiall Members of his Church ; but it cannot be that all the Clergy in times past could be culpable of adhering to Popery or the like , and in this fire from Heaven , which is the Lords small anger , or his small deluge emerging the former Clergy men ; if there ( I say ) be but one amongst them , that can say and prove himselfe not guilty , where is his Zoar , or any City of refuge .

Elias a great Prophet and a chosen of the Lord , desired of the Lord , that he might be taken away from amongst the children of men , saying , they have killed thy Prophets , &c. and I onely am left , and they seeke my life also : in answer to Elias , God saies , I have reserved , seven thousand chosen men in Israell , that have not bended their knees to Baal .

It should seeme by those words though Eliah had the inspiration of Gods spirit in him , in a high nature , yet hee did not know the mentall reservations of all men and women towards their God in Israel . And so according to morall reason , that the noble Estates of the Land doe not know of every particular wrong that is now done to some of the former Clergy men ; every vessell should stand upon its owne bottome : why ? because there is so much Drunkennesse , must there be no wine nor strong drink ? and because there is so much Leachery , must there be no women ? God forbid . Now I prove that those Clergy men heeretofore , that had not a hand to bring in Popery into the Church of God , neither did in no wise intend to quench or put out the light of the Gospel , but behaved themselves reverently , and prudently in their vocations , ought not to be put out of their Benefices : nay if they had committed some faults , yet they ought not to bee put and thrust out of the Vineyard in this kind , for one particular fault : for why ? let some of the sons and daughters of men but think with themselves , ●hat if God in the dreadfull day of judgement , should deale with us as we deale heere below one with another , what would become of us ? assuredly wee should goe on the left hand with the Goats ▪ Goe ye cursed &c.

Concerning the remission that many of the former Clergy men should have to prove it . We read that our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ when he came into the Vineyard , and there found a Tree that bare no fruit , he bad the Vineyard dresser cut it down , why cumbreth it the ground ? Nay sayes the Vineyard dresser , I will entrench and dig about it one yeer more : wee doe not read that our Saviour did contradict the Vineyeard dresser in that busines

For one particular man a Clergy man ▪ one Mr. FRANCIS DAVIES of Llangaine , in the County of Glamorgane in Wales a man that would never hear of Mariage his reason was , lest the care of a wife and children should in part take him off from the service of his God , and the duty that hee was to performe to the great charge under him : then his second reason was , if he should mary , hee could not be a supporter to many of his friends , which he was to divers of them : nay he took more pains in his Calling to Preach the word of God in his two Parishes , then any two Clergy men in the County of Glamorgan : and for this man to bee thrust out of his Benefices , and still to be kept from them , t is great pity indeed : for the rest of the former Clergy of the County of Glamorgan , they be of age , let them speak for themselves .

I should have made the fourth part of this weake and unworthy work which I have already penned , that is , concerning the Lords Prayer , and against such persons as doe deny the saying of it : loath I was to make description of it , in regard that it is , as it were , the master piece of Christ Jesus his own words , lest that God should be so offended with me , as he did strike Uzzah for touching the Ark of the Covenant . But upon a Sabbath day being the 19. of Sept. 1651. to heare one Mr. ELLIS make an Exposition on part of the Lords Prayer , in the Church of Cardiffe , the words thus : Hallowed bee thy Name , thy Kingdome come , thy will be done in Earth as it is in Heaven : where he sayd , that people did tempt God to say the Lords Prayer : why sayd he ? because the Angels and Saints in Heaven do pray and serve God perfect , and we unperfect : that is most true : but I hold his and others coverture and debarment in it to bee to think it as it were a certaine imbecillity or weaknesse in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ , to command his Apostles to say it , and that we should not imitate them to say it likewise . Doth he or any other of the sons of men thinke that our Saviour Jesus Christ when he said , thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven , did meane that mortall men , that are conceived and borne in sinne ▪ and all their dayes live in sinne , and altogether polluted with corruption and uncleannesse , can execute the good will of the Father as well as those celestiall Saints and Seraphins that do dayly and hourely reape the fruition of the heavenly Deity , and habituall society with Almighty God ? no , no , the meaning of our Saviour Jesus Christ , was , that the sons and daughters of men should doe their best endeavour to execute his will and pleasure upon earth , and that which they should be defective in , the rest should be supplyed out of his blessed merits ; for Zacharias and Elizabeth were said to walke in all the Commandements of the Lord ; no question but they both one time or other had abridged the Lords Commandements , but such lapses were not attributed unto them : why ? because they did their best endeavour to execute the will of their God ; for God requires no more at our hands , but to do our best to serve him in uprightnesse of hearts and willingnesse of spirits , and the defects as be , are to be supplyed out of the blessed merits of Jesus Christ : and withall , I shall conclude this sentence with the words of that sweet singer of Israel , David the King ; he knoweth whereof we are made , he remembreth we are but dust .

'T is true , the both Evangelists do not concurre or agree in the writing of the Lords prayer ; the one hath it , when ye pray , pray ye thus , verbatim , word by word : the other hath it , when ye pray , pray ye as thus : and in these times those that debarre it , followe neither : for why ? we should either say it word by word , as the one hath it , or else take it as a modell , or as it were a Text to pray by it ; for assuredly , our Saviour did not speake it vainely , but that either of the both should be followed in it : nay , he much disdained the vaine babblings and long prayers of the Scribes and Pharisees , and comprehended the prayers of his servants in this short prayer , Our Father , &c. and did compose it to six Petitions ; the first three for the glory of God , the other three for the necessity of man ; and the best Divine in this Land may preach a whole twelvemonth , twise every Sabbath day , and perhaps not consumate or end all the Doctrine of this good and godly Prayer .

I could have made this Booke three times as long , but as far as I am called to be a Christian , though a great sinner , I hope I have declared my selfe to God and the world of and concerning the principles of my tenents in Religion , in these foure things , and whoso will question me for it . for I shall think my selfe happy to sacrifice my bloud in the quarrell of my Lord and Master Jesus Christ , that spared not his sacred hearts bloud for my redemption from the thraldome of Satan , that old enemy of mankinde , that still goeth about the world like a roaring Lion , seeking whom hee may devour . Great bloudshedding ( the more the pitty ) hath beene in this Land , of , and concerning such differences , as are now between Mr. ELLIS and my selfe : Counsell what we may , fight about it as long as we please , we are all proclaimed in the word of God to be unprofitable servants , the proudest of us all : and it will be one day said unto us , give account of your Stewardships , you shall be no longer Stewards ; who shall end this controversie , between Mr. ELLIS and my selfe ? shall the Commissioners of Array end it ? no , I challenge them , for they did imprison me for nineteen weekes and foure dayes in Cardiffes Goale for my affection to the noble Parliament and the Army , and gave away my meanes , 100l . per annum to one Major WINSOR , a ranke Papist : shall the Gentlemen that beare the rule , and the sway now in the County of Glamorgan end it ? no , I challenge some of them likewise : for they did me greater wrongs then the Commissioners of Array have done me formerly : but for my owne part , I shall rest my selfe contented about such injuries , untill my Redeemer comes in the aire , in the very Clouds themselves , to judge both quick and dead , and then if I shall not obtaine mercy at the sweet hands of my Saviour , I shall be sure to have justice administred to this my tired soule upon earth ; I have had neither of them both here below , I am sure of it .

Then there will be no Bishop favouring Popery , no Mechanicke Tradesman preaching Heresie , no Lawyer pleading , nor no Attorny prating , for the dissolution of the vast world , and all that is therein , wil be like the unrowling of an Exchequer Writ : when that it is fully opened it roules it selfe up againe , and the Judiciary Sentence is ready for us all . Come ye Blessed , and go ye cursed ; yea , and happy will that servant be , when that his Master commeth , he shall finde to be watchfull ; for he shall receive that comfortable Benediction , Euge bone serve , well done good and faithfull servant , thou hast been faithfull in a little , be thou ruler over much : enter thou into thy Masters joy : To the which joy of our Lord and Master Iesus Christ , make us all to be partakers ; To whom , as is most meet , be ascribed all Honour , Glory , Might , Majesty , Dominion , and Thanksgiving , both now and for evermore , Amen .
