Pray for thy servants; for so we shall still own ourselves to be, though we have got another master. Unto the Lord thy God, whom thou hast so great an interest in, and canst so easily prevail with for any mercy, whilst we are ashamed and afraid to call him our God, because we have so highly offended him. That we die not; that this terrible storm may be taken away, lest our persons and the fruits of the earth be all destroyed. To ask us a king: so horribly were they biassed with their prejudices and passions, that nothing but a miracle could convince them of this particular sin.
