A
rare
and
due
Commendation
of
the
singular
vertues
and
gouernment
of
the
Queenes
most
excellent
Maiestie
:
with
the
blessed
estate
of
England
.
And
how
God
hath
blessed
her
Highnes
from
time
to
time
.
WHO
so
considereth
the
state
of
this
lande
from
the
birth
daie
of
the
Quéenes
most
excellent
Maiestie
euen
to
this
present
time
,
may
easilie
perceiue
the
great
and
vnspeakable
goodnes
of
almightie
God
towardes
this
small
Iland
,
how
he
hath
in
the
same
time
brought
many
wonderfull
things
to
passe
,
yea
it
appeareth
,
that
his
intent
was
then
to
perform
in
her
(
as
he
hath
since
done
)
a
most
rare
worke
and
full
of
impossibilitie
.
And
that
his
mightinesse
,
his
loue
,
his
care
,
his
wonders
,
and
his
mercifull
prouidence
,
might
cléerely
shew
forth
,
and
bee
euidently
séene
in
her
,
notwithstanding
all
the
practises
,
force
and
mightines
of
her
enemies
.
Who
were
like
many
times
since
to
haue
preuailed
against
her
,
had
not
God
of
his
gracious
goodnes
and
power
,
mightilie
and
miraculously
defended
her
.
And
here
if
wee
consider
the
ground
worke
of
Gods
blessinges
prefigured
in
her
Highnes
,
it
appeareth
verie
euident
,
that
first
he
did
in
her
insancie
adorne
her
with
all
maner
of
vertues
,
such
as
none
might
compare
with
all
.
And
thereunto
gaue
her
the
spirit
of
true
knowledge
and
vnderstanding
of
his
truth
,
with
a
zealous
desire
to
search
the
Scriptures
,
and
to
haue
a
full
intelligence
in
the
knowledge
and
difference
of
tongues
,
that
she
might
the
better
defend
and
maintaine
the
truth
,
if
euer
shee
might
come
to
that
dignitie
whereunto
she
was
successiuely
borne
.
Thus
in
her
young
and
tender
yéeres
it
pleased
God
to
call
awaie
King
Henrie
the
eight
of
most
famous
memory
,
and
after
his
death
gaue
vnto
vs
the
most
Christian
king
Edward
the
sixt
,
who
lawfully
succéeded
in
the
roome
of
his
deceased
father
,
but
such
was
the
vnthankfulnes
of
the
people
at
that
time
,
that
the
most
parte
of
them
desired
to
follow
strange
Gods
,
&
to
worship
them
with
superstition
and
idolatrie
,
and
vtterly
reiected
the
sincere
and
true
religion
of
Iesus
Christ
,
maintained
and
publikely
administred
,
and
allowed
by
that
most
Christian
and
godly
king
.
But
in
respect
of
this
their
vnthankefulnesse
,
it
pleased
God
sodainly
to
withdrawe
the
light
of
his
truth
from
the
generall
multitude
of
them
,
by
taking
awaie
the
saide
Christian
king
:
and
in
stead
of
his
truth
and
Christian
religion
(
then
sodainly
abolished
)
he
sent
them
blinde
guides
to
maintaine
and
nusle
them
in
Popish
and
superstitions
idolatrie
,
giuing
them
a
Prince
that
allowed
thereof
,
and
stirred
vp
many
tyrants
and
tormentors
to
slaie
,
persecute
and
slaunder
the
true
professors
of
Gods
truth
.
Then
were
the
true
professours
of
his
worde
tried
lyke
siluer
in
the
furnace
,
and
the
dayes
of
bloudshed
of
Christians
dailie
séene
.
Then
were
the
blessed
Saints
of
God
constrained
to
liue
in
caues
,
dens
,
desarts
,
déepe
dungeons
,
and
vnwholesome
places
,
yea
,
then
what
Gaile
or
prison
in
this
lande
was
not
filled
with
the
true
professours
of
Gods
truth
,
and
dailie
condemned
and
burned
with
fire
and
faggots
?
Then
bloudie
Bonner
,
Gardner
,
and
Iohn
a
Vailes
,
and
a
number
of
tyrants
tormented
and
persecuted
sundrie
godlie
persons
,
as
Cranmer
,
Ridley
,
Lattimer
,
Bradford
,
Philpot
,
Rogers
,
and
a
number
of
learned
and
godly
preachers
,
and
neuer
lefte
them
vntill
they
had
consumed
their
bodies
to
ashes
.
Then
began
the
troubles
of
the
Quéenes
most
excellent
Maiestie
that
now
is
,
who
bearing
the
title
and
name
of
Ladie
Elizabeth
,
was
vehemently
suspected
to
be
a
fauourer
of
true
religion
,
so
that
Stephen
Gardener
then
Bishop
of
Winchester
,
and
Bishop
Bonner
then
Bishop
of
London
,
did
together
complot
and
practise
meanes
to
procure
the
death
of
her
Maiestie
.
And
thereupon
in
time
hoping
they
should
find
meanes
to
cause
the
losse
of
her
head
,
got
her
to
bee
sent
to
the
tower
of
London
in
a
Barge
like
a
traitor
,
and
there
locked
vp
close
prisoner
,
where
she
was
straightly
watched
,
subtilly
examined
,
and
déeply
charged
with
heresie
and
blasphemie
.
Then
were
her
seruants
put
from
her
,
and
the
cruellest
persons
thought
most
méetest
for
the
straite
kéeping
of
her
person
,
where
though
continuall
teares
issued
forth
in
abundance
from
her
princely
eies
,
and
she
found
innocent
in
things
wherwith
she
was
dayly
charged
,
yet
could
shee
not
haue
anie
fauour
for
her
releasement
.
In
all
which
time
of
her
troubles
,
shee
endured
a
number
of
crosses
,
being
somtime
taken
forth
of
her
bed
when
she
was
in
great
daunger
of
death
,
and
suffered
a
number
of
such
like
iniuries
,
and
although
it
were
grieuous
to
her
being
a
Prince
,
yet
did
her
Highnes
endure
them
with
so
great
patience
,
that
euen
in
her
deepest
sorow
,
shee
would
rather
sigh
and
desire
the
libertie
of
the
Gospell
,
than
in
anie
sorte
to
wish
or
desire
her
owne
releasement
or
fréedome
.
But
from
the
tower
of
London
,
after
many
examinations
before
her
enemies
,
and
cruel
threatninges
by
her
sharpe
and
tyrnnous
kéepers
,
shee
was
closely
connaied
to
Woodstocke
,
where
she
continued
in
great
griefe
,
calling
vpon
God
,
&
did
onely
put
her
trust
in
him
,
and
perswaded
her selfe
,
that
hee
knowing
her
innocencie
in
those
things
wherewith
she
was
dailie
yet
wrongfully
charged
,
would
doubtles
in
time
deliuer
her
from
the
snares
and
wicked
intents
of
her
mightie
aduersaries
.
Thus
after
three
yeeres
imprisoment
,
in
which
time
she
was
had
in
greate
disgrace
,
it
pleased
God
to
looke
vpon
her
with
his
mercifull
eies
,
and
caused
queene
Marie
her
sister
to
send
for
her
foorth
of
prison
,
for
which
great
signe
of
loue
and
fauour
at
Gods
hand
,
she
gaue
humble
thankes
to
God
in
deliuering
her
from
the
handes
of
her
mightie
and
capitall
aduersaries
,
who
during
her
imprisonment
,
would
verie
subtilly
examine
her
,
where
her
inferiors
would
triumph
ouer
her
,
wher
her
foes
would
threaten
her
,
and
her
disembling
friends
would
dailie
vndermine
her
.
Thus
Almightie
God
hauing
deliuered
her
in
pittie
,
did
also
take
compassion
vpon
this
distressed
land
,
and
as
well
to
shew
his
mercifull
comfort
to
his
afflicted
Church
and
members
of
the
same
,
as
also
to
make
his
louing
power
and
kindnes
to
shine
forth
vpon
her
maiestie
,
did
by
death
call
awaie
quéene
Marie
,
and
immediatly
appointed
our
most
gracious
Ladie
Elizabeth
to
the
inheritance
of
the
crowne
and
diadem
of
England
.
Thus
was
her
most
princelie
maiestie
called
from
a
prisoner
to
be
a
prince
,
from
the
possession
of
a
castle
,
to
the
inheritance
of
a
crowne
,
and
from
feare
of
loosing
her
head
,
to
bee
entituled
the
supreame
head
.
Thus
was
her
Highnes
proclaimed
the
lawful
quéene
of
England
,
afterward
crowned
to
the
greate
ioye
of
all
her
louing
subieets
and
well
willers
,
who
shewed
great
signes
of
loue
and
obedience
to
her
maiestie
,
adorning
the
stréetes
in
the
Citie
of
London
in
her
iourney
towards
Westminster
,
with
pageants
,
shewes
and
triumphs
of
great
cost
,
yea
they
caused
the
Conduits
in
the
Citie
to
runne
with
pure
wine
,
and
nothing
was
omitted
that
might
be
done
to
shew
their
ioyfull
hearts
.
Great
was
her
Highnes
clemencie
when
shee
was
come
to
the
crowne
,
she
preterred
pitty
and
peace
before
rigor
&
reuenge
,
by
séeking
to
spare
their
bloud
,
which
before
sought
to
spill
hers
.
Since
the
time
of
whose
most
prosperous
and
happie
raigne
,
the
kingdome
of
England
hath
ben
blessed
of
the
Lord
:
it
hath
abounded
with
wealth
,
plentie
and
peace
,
Popish
idolatrie
is
now
banished
,
and
the
true
&
sincers
word
of
God
is
freely
preached
among
vs
to
our
euerlasting
comfort
.
By
her
and
through
her
wee
are
all
blessed
:
her
procéedings
are
godly
,
and
her
administration
of
iustice
most
commendable
:
her
lawes
are
snaffles
vnto
the
wicked
,
and
guides
to
the
godly
:
wisedome
,
pollicie
and
good
gouernment
brideleth
all
manner
of
broiles
which
follie
would
daily
bréede
and
bring
in
for
the
confusion
and
ouer
throw
of
her
Maiestie
and
this
lande
,
against
whom
neither
foraine
force
nor
ciuill
fraude
,
neither
discorde
at
home
nor
conspiracies
abroade
could
at
anie
time
auaile
.
O
blessed
peace
,
O
happie
Prince
and
fortunate
people
,
the
God
of
Abraham
is
Englands
God
,
in
the
midst
of
whom
he
hath
placed
peace
which
bringeth
all
plentie
for
the
sake
of
a

who

of

nor

runneth

and

Emperour
of

:
among
whom
generallie
her

is
wonderfully
seared
and
greatly

.
For
proofe
wherof
that
her
Highnes
is
wondered
at
,
spoken
of
,
and
highly
reuerenced
in
the
Court
of

and

,
let

that
heathen
Emperour
hath
adorned

Maiestie
withall
in
his
late

sent
into
England
beare

hereof
.
The
most
Honorable

rare
titles
which
the
Emperiall
Musulmanlike
great
Emperour
of
the
Turkes
,
named
Zuldan
Murad
Chan
,
lately
sent

to
the

.
To
the

Maiestie
of

Queene
of

.
Most

most

and

the

prince
of
the

of

quéene
of
the

of

,
most
excellent
Ladie
,
most

gouernesse
of
all

of

of

We
wishing

a
most
fortunate
increase
and
successe
to
your

causes
and

,
and
offering
eternall
praises
and
vowes
,
worthie
of
mutuall
and
perpetuall
familiaritie
and

,
&c.
And
vnderneath
,
the
ende
of
the
same
letter
,
containing
matters
onely
appertaining
vnto
princes
:
and
therefore
omitted
.
It
is
thus
subscribed
.
Euen
in
our
Royall
palace
of
Constantinople
,
the
twelfth
day
of
Iune
in
the
yeare
of
Iesus
one
thousande
siue
hundred
foure
score
and
tenne
.
And
of
our
great
prophet
Mahomet
nine
hundred
foure
score
and
eightéene
,
in
the
ende
of
the
moneth
Saban
.
These
titles
of
great
honour
plainely
sheweth
,
that
her
maiestie
is
more
spoken
of
in
the
Courtes
both
of
Christian
and
Heathen
princes
,
and
more
seared
and
beloued
than
euer
prince
that
liued
in
this
lande
.
What
Christian
prince
,
hath
at
any
time
had
Ambassage
from
the
great
Turke
but
onely
hir
highnes
,
or
hath
had
so
many
Ambassadours
together
as
her
maiestie
hath
receaued
,
and
at
one
time
intertained
with
great
honour
in
her
owne
Courtes
?
I
am
of
that
mind
that
there
hath
not
bene
anie
.
And
although
England
be
but
an
Iland
of
small
compasse
,
yet
such
is
the
blessing
of
God
vpon
the
same
,
that
happie
is
that
region
and
commonwealth
,
that
nation
,
that
king
,
that
kindome
,
that
prouince
or
countrie
,
that
is
in
league
vnitie
,
friendship
,
loue
and
amitie
with
the
quéenes
maiestie
of
England
.
If
the
mightie
Emperour
of
the
Turkes
,
doe
himselfe
in
this
sort
loue
and
honour
her
highnes
,
and
all
other
Christian
princes
,
desire
mutuall
agréement
with
her
(
except
such
whome
God
hath
blinded
with
selfe
loue
)
howe
muche
then
are
naturall
borne
subiectes
bounde
in
dutie
to
reuerence
her
,
yea
and
to
pray
for
her
long
life
by
whome
onely
they
liue
in
such
happie
and
peaceable
estate
.
This
peace
the
Lord
of
his
goodnesse
hath
continued
with
great
and
vnspeakeable
mercie
among
vs
his
chosen
people
of
Englande
since
the
time
of
hir
maiesties
reigne
,
whereby
we
are
greatly
bound
to
praise
God
for
such
a
prince
by
whom
we
enioy
al
the
benefits
of
peace
,
hauing
our
barnes
ful
while
other
famish
,
our
coffers
stuft
while
others
are
emptie
and
our
houses
furnished
when
others
are
fired
.
This
peace
God
hath
giuen
vs
only
for
her
vertues
:
&
which
we
ought
hartely
to
pray
that
it
will
please
God
still
to
continue
the
same
among
vs
for
his
mercies
same
.
O
fortunate
England
that
hast
so
famous
a
quene
,
we
are
vngratefull
if
we
pray
not
for
her
,
we
are
wicked
if
we
loue
not
her
,
&
most
miserable
whensoeuer
we
loose
her
.
Her
Maiestie
is
a
stranger
and
altogether
vnknown
vnto
the
great
Turke
,
&
yet
Fame
which
telleth
truth
al
the
world
ouer
,
hath
made
her
name
,
her
vertues
,
her
wisedome
,
her
iudgement
and
iustice
verie
sufficientlie
knowen
vnto
him
.
In
respect
whereof
hee
hath
offered
that
to
aide
,
assist
,
and
pleasure
her
maiestie
,
all
necessarie
things
ordered
and
prepared
in
his
porte
,
shall
bee
spéedily
dispatched
and
in
readines
at
her
Highnesse
pleasure
,
to
defende
her
agaynst
anie
enemie
whatsoeuer
.
With
promise
of
assurance
not
to
doubte
thereof
.
It
is
a
rare
thing
to
sée
a
heathen
Prince
professe
and
vowe
to
perfourme
matter
of
so
greate
a
moment
vnto
a
Christian
Prince
.
A
thing
neuer
read
of
in
auncient
Chronicles
,
nor
heard
of
vntill
this
time
,
and
were
it
not
that
it
is
the
wonderfull
and
vndoubted
wil
and
prouidence
of
almightie
God
,
it
coulde
neuer
haue
come
to
passe
,
neither
is
it
to
bée
thought
other
wise
,
but
that
the
secrete
worke
of
God
by
her
maiestie
may
bee
such
as
may
be
some
occasion
heereafter
of
the
Turkes
conuersion
,
which
the
Lord
graunt
may
spéedilie
come
to
passe
.
What
greater
meruaile
hath
euer
happened
since
the
worlde
beganne
,
then
to
see
a
maiden
queene
gouerne
in
peace
so
valiant
and
strong
a
people
,
yea
,
and
to
make
all
nations
and
people
in
the
worlde
to
admire
,
honour
and
loue
her
,
and
her selfe
to
liue
in
the
fauour
of
almightie
God
(
in
despight
of
them
that
wishe
her
spoile
)
with
her
swoord
in
her
sheath
,
her
armour
in
the
tower
,
with
hir
souldiers
in
their
houses
,
and
her
coine
in
her
coffers
:
readie
to
defende
the
inuading
enemie
whensoeuer
he
shall
finde
himselfe
readie
to
offend
the
weakest
parte
of
her
dominions
,
which
at
this
daie
in
all
foraine
partes
is
called
the
most
happiest
kingdome
.
England
is
the
iuell
and
flower
of
bountie
,
peace
,
plentie
and
welth
,
yea
it
is
the
principallest
place
for
anie
man
to
liue
in
throughout
the
whole
worlde
.
What
else
maketh
the
strangers
to
slacke
so
fast
to
Englande
?
thinke
you
it
is
only
for
religion
?
no
I
warrant
you
,
there
is
of
them
as
there
is
of
our
owne
nation
,
manie
godly
professors
,
true
Protestantes
,
some
Papistes
,
some
Atheists
,
some
Iacke
a
both
sides
,
some
Anabaptists
and
what
not
?
So
that
in
truth
it
is
the
ease
,
the
welth
,
the
peace
,
the
safetie
and
security
of
England
,
both
for
their
liues
and
gods
that
brings
them
hither
in
such
aboundance
.
Is
not
England
,
thinke
you
,
most
happie
and
blessed
that
féeles
no
parte
of
the
afflictions
which
other
kingdoms
,
princes
,
&
nations
do
daily
endure
?
We
liue
at
libertie
voide
of
feare
,
so
as
we
obserue
hir
Maiesties
lawes
:
we
liue
with
fréedome
of
conscience
,
which
thousands
of
thousands
wants
,
we
haue
the
truth
daily
preached
among
vs
,
we
safely
reape
the
corne
from
the
ground
,
which
is
yearely
sowne
.
Here
mercie
and
mildnes
reignes
euerie
day
together
,
&
euerie
man
possesseth
his
owne
withquiet
.
Here
no
taxes
are
imposed
vpon
the
people
as
in
other
countries
,
where
they
can
not
haue
a
pot
of
English
béere
,
but
they
are
taxed
for
it
towards
the
maintenance
of
warres
.
Here
the
great
blessings
of
God
appeares
,
vpon
our
ground
in
our
hearbs
,
our
fruites
,
our selues
,
our
children
,
our
cattell
,
and
in
all
other
things
appertaining
to
vs
whatsoeuer
.
Contrariwise
,
other
countries
round
about
vs
,
especially
France
and
the
seauentéene
Prouinces
,
are
gréeuously
distressed
and
oppressed
with
ciuill
warres
,
mutinies
,
tumults
,
rowts
,
riots
and
all
manner
of
things
that
may
stirre
vp
mischiefs
,
which
end
with
bloud
and
death
,
this
worketh
the
ouerthrow
of
euery
well
gouerned
estate
,
and
wil
be
the
vtter
coonfusion
of
those
countries
and
kingdoms
,
if
God
do
not
in
his
mercie
spéedely
bring
so
passe
some
wayes
and
meanes
for
the
repressing
thereof
.
Their
fieldes
are
filled
with
Campes
,
whilest
ours
are
quietly
bringing
foorth
corne
,
they
are
mustering
their
men
in
harnesse
,
whilest
that
we
in
quiet
are
reaping
our
haruest
.
Englande
vseth
their
peeces
to
fowle
for
pleasure
,
when
in
other
countries
they
vse
them
for
feare
of
perill
.
Who
so
euer
he
be
that
considereth
the
troubles
which
they
daily
tast
of
,
their
continuall
dangers
and
daily
vnquietnesse
,
which
they
from
time
to
abide
,
will
say
no
lesse
but
that
their
case
is
most
miserable
.
Howe
wonderfully
hath
the
Lorde
blessed
this
lande
with
aboundance
and
plentie
of
all
manner
of
things
,
as
no
nation
in
Christendome
may
compare
with
vs
,
we
haue
first
the
blessings
of
almightie
God
,
we
haue
golde
and
siluer
,
mynes
of
tinne
and
lead
,
iron
,
stéele
,
copper
,
brasse
,
and
for
wooll
and
cloth
,
what
countrie
may
compare
with
Englande
,
we
haue
quarries
of
stone
,
quicke
siluer
,
sulpher
,
blacke
lead
,
allome
,
ortment
,
vermillion
,
copperas
,
salt
peeter
,
sea
coale
,
chare
coale
and
great
store
of
all
manner
of
woode
and
fuell
,
trées
,
fruites
,
saffron
,
fowle
,
fishe
,
deare
,
shéepe
,
rabbits
,
béefes
,
bullocke
.
Of
lether
,
butter
,
chéese
and
corne
,
the
Lorde
hath
sent
vs
aboundance
,
and
in
so
great
aboundance
as
no
nation
hath
greater
plentie
or
may
equally
compare
with
vs.
Besides
all
these
,
the
Royall
Nauie
and
generall
shipping
of
this
lande
,
are
such
as
fame
her selfe
maketh
Englandes
enemies
to
quake
at
the
same
:
and
this
Nauie
suffiseth
for
three
seuerall
purposes
:
the
first
and
principallest
that
they
are
founde
of
sufficient
strength
for
defense
in
time
of
warre
:
the
seconde
sorte
are
for
burthen
,
and
the
thirde
sorte
for
fishing
:
the
least
of
all
which
,
one
for
one
and
of
equall
burthen
,
shall
bare
to
match
any
two
or
thrée
that
anie
enemie
hath
heretofore
sent
against
vs.
And
all
this
were
nothing
,
nor
we
in
neuer
the
more
safetie
,
if
God
who
is
the
ouerthrower
of
all
strength
,
were
not
the
principallest
proppe
and
piller
of
our
safetie
:
but
of
this
we
are
sure
,
that
all
these
benefites
and
blessings
come
from
God
,
who
is
the
author
of
all
goodnesse
,
and
from
whome
all
blessings
doth
procéede
,
and
that
he
daily
increaseth
and
multiplieth
his
blessings
vppon
vs
onely
for
her
maiesties
sake
,
whome
he
daily
defendeth
and
protecteth
,
and
for
whome
he
continually
fighteth
against
the
subtill
and
craftie
deuises
and
attemptes
of
the
enemies
of
God
and
his
church
,
and
of
her
highnes
and
this
land
.
The
gouernement
of
Englande
is
most
honorable
and
the
procéedings
as
honourable
,
yea
it
is
vsed
and
ordered
in
suche
sorte
as
no
treasons
can
so
secretly
bee
pretended
,
but
they
are
soone
spied
out
,
and
the
practisers
of
them
seuerely
punished
:
resistaunce
is
soone
had
if
forren
power
by
inuasion
doe
pretende
our
hurt
,
the
people
of
Englande
are
soone
vp
in
armes
,
as
was
séene
at
Tilberie
,
at
Harwitch
,
and
in
euerie
shire
in
this
realme
of
Englande
at
such
time
as
the
Spanishe
power
attempted
to
haue
made
a
full
conquest
of
this
whole
lande
,
but
God
gaue
strength
,
courage
and
willingnes
to
euerie
man
to
withstand
them
,
yea
the
great
goodnes
and
mercie
of
almightie
God
was
shewed
in
ouerthrowing
our
enemies
and
deliuering
vs
from
the
vngodly
intents
of
those
bloodthirstie
persecutours
,
here
néedlesse
to
be
recited
,
the
same
being
yet
fresh
in
euerie
mans
memorie
.
Englande
is
the
place
where
all
things
are
cheape
&
easily
had
:
and
in
all
forren
nations
people
woonder
and
holde
vp
their
handes
to
beholde
the
happie
state
of
Englande
and
as
well
the
frée
as
the
forren
doe
all
admire
our
peace
and
plenty
.
This
argueth
doubtlesse
that
God
hath
blessed
the
land
,
the
prince
,
the
seat
&
the
people
and
where
his
blessings
is
there
wants
no
ioy
,
no
blisse
●or
hope
of
heauens
happines
,
nor
doubt
of
the
long
continnance
thereof
.
England
is
a
swéete
nut
incompassed
in
a
shel
which
is
hard
to
cracke
,
it
séemeth
that
it
crackt
the
teeth
of
the
Spaniards
when
they
came
in
their
ships
on
the
west
of
England
like
great
rastels
intending
to
haue
deuoured
the
swéete
nut
of
Gods
bounties
and
blessings
,
which
is
the
quéenes
maiestie
,
and
the
states
of
England
.
England
(
God
be
thanked
)
is
frée
from
such
yoke
,
the
bodie
is
sound
and
the
armes
are
strong
,
I
meane
both
the
prince
and
the
people
,
young
and
old
haue
sufficient
courage
to
dant
the
foe
and
able
ioints
to
trie
our
right
in
the
field
:
so
that
England
néede
not
doubt
the
power
and
strength
of
the
enemy
so
long
as
we
doe
maintaine
Gods
truth
,
who
is
the
grounde
of
Englands
trust
,
and
so
long
as
we
are
carefull
to
please
God
,
and
to
do
as
he
hath
commanded
vs
in
his
worde
:
we
may
assure
our selues
that
he
will
kéepe
vs
from
being
conquered
,
or
by
our
enemies
to
be
troden
vnder
féete
.
To
conclude
,
séeing
we
finde
our selues
so
bountifully
blessed
,
as
is
aforesaid
,
and
that
we
liue
in
a
more
happier
estate
than
our
neighbours
in
forren
nations
,
only
for
hir
sake
who
is
the
root
,
branch
&
flower
therof
,
forasmuch
as
by
hir
the
same
is
like
to
be
continued
,
we
ought
earnestly
to
pray
for
hir
to
almighty
God
to
continue
his
blessings
towardes
hir
.
The
God
of
heauen
blesse
hir
highnesse
from
all
daungers
,
preserue
and
blesse
hir
maiesties
most
honorable
Councell
,
and
continue
his
blessings
towards
England
for
euermore
.
Amen
.
