THE Series of Successful Events that has attended your Glorious Enterprize for the saving these Kingdoms from so imminent and destructive Evils, has been so visible and [Page 2] extraordinary, that it may force an Ac­knowledgment of the Divine Providence from those who deny it, and raises Admi­ration in all who believe and reverence it. The Beauty and Speed of this happy Work, are the bright Signatures of his Hand who creates Deliverance for his People. The less of Humane Power, the more of the Divine Wisdom and Goodness has been conspicu­ous in it. If the Deliverance had been ob­tain'd by fierce and bloody Battels, Victory it self had been dejected and sad, and our Joy had been mixt with afflicting Bitterness. But as the Sun ascending the Horizon, dispels without noise the darkness of the Night; so Your serene Presence has, without Tumults and Disorders, chased away the Darkness that invaded us. In the sense of this asto­nishing Deliverance, we desire with all pos­sible ardency of Affection, to magnify the glorious Name of God the Author of it, by whose entire Efficacy the Means have been [Page 3] successful: And we cannot without a warm rapture of Thankfulness, recount our Obli­gations to your Majesty the happy Instru­ment of it. Your illustrious Greatness of Mind, in an Undertaking of such vast Ex­pence; Your Heroick Zeal, in exposing Your most precious Life in such an adventurous Expedition; Your wise Conduct and un­shaken Resolution in prosecuting Your great Ends, are above the loftiest flights of Lan­guage, exceed all Praise. We owe to your Majesty the two greatest and most valuable Blessings that we can enjoy, the preservation of the True Religion, our most Sacred Treasure, and the recovery of the falling State, and establishing it upon just Founda­tions. According to our Duty, we promise unfainting Fidelity, and true Allegiance to your Majesty's Person and Government, We are encouraged, by Your gracious Pro­mise upon our first Address, to humbly de­sire and hope, that your Majesty will be [Page 4] pleased, by your Wisdom and Authority to establish a firm Union of your Protestant Subjects in the Matters of Religion, by making the Rule of Christianity to be the Rule of Conformity. Our blessed Union in the Purity and Peace of the Gospel, will make this Church a fair and lovely Type of Heaven, and terrible to our Antichristian Enemies: This will make England the stea­dy Centre from whence a powerful Influence will be deriv'd for the support of the In­terest of Reformed Christianity abroad: This will bring immortal Honour to your Name, above the Trophies and Triumphs of the most renowned Conquerors. We do assure your Majesty, that we shall cordially embrace the Terms of Union which the ruling Wisdom of our Saviour has pre­scrib'd in his Word. We shall not trespass farther upon your Royal Patience, but shall offer up our fervent Prayers to the King of Kings, that he will please to direct your Ma­jesty [Page 5] by his unerring Wisdom, and always encline your Heart to his Glory, and encom­pass your Sacred Person with his Favour as with a Shield, and make your Government a universal Blessing to these Kingdoms.

YOUR happy Arrival into your Native Country, and Accession to the Crown, has diffus'd an universal Joy through this King­dom. Tis an auspicious Sign of publick Felicity, when Supreme Vertue and Su­preme Dignity meet in the same Person. Your inviolable firmness in the profession of the Truth, and exemplary Piety, are the most Radiant Jewels in your Crown. The Lustre of your Conversation, unstain'd in the midst of tempting Vanities, and adorn'd with every Grace, recommends Religion as [Page 7] the most honourable and amiable Quality, even to those who are averse from hearing Sermons, and apt to despise serious Instru­ctions and Excitations to be Religious. We humbly desire your Majesty will be pleased, by your Wisdom and Goodness, to com­pose the Differences between your Prote­stant Subjects, in Things of less moment concerning Religion. We hope those Re­verend Persons who conspire with us in the main End, the Glory of God and the Pub­lick Good, will consent to the Terms of Union wherein all the Reformed Churches agree. We shall sincerely address our Re­quests to God, that he will please to pour down in a rich abundance his Blessings up­on your Majesty's Person and Government, and preserve. You to his Heavenly King­dom.
