<P>_O Almighty Lord, and in Ie&s;us Chri&s;t our mo&s;t mercifull Father, although by rea&s;on of our grievous back-&s;lidings and Rebellions again&s;t thee, we be altogether unwor|thy to put up any petitions unto thy Maie&s;tie for our &s;elves; yet encouraged by the manifold experience of thy mercies in hearing of &s;inners, wee pre&s;ume to &s;uppli|cate thine Almighty goodne&s;&s;e in the behalfe of our di|&s;tre&s;&s;ed brethren in the Kingdome of <HI>Ireland:</HI> We confe&s;&s;e thou art iu&s;t (O mo&s;t mighty Lord) and therefore for their wickedne&s;&s;e, ha&s;t thou hid thy face from that Nation; yea, thou ha&s;t filled it with dead bo|dies, whom thou ha&s;t &s;laine in thine anger; yet behold them wee pray thee in mercy, bring health unto them and cure them, and reveale unto them the abundance of peace and truth: Lord return their captivity, and build them up as at the fir&s;t, clean&s;e them from all their iniquities, &amp; par|don all their &s;ins, whereby they have &s;tirred up thy wrath again&s;t them, and make their name to thee a name of ioy, and before all the Nations of the Earth a pray&s;e and an honour, for the good thou do&s;t unto them, and to them&s;elves an everla&s;ting comfort; becau&s;e of all the goodne&s;&s;e, and for the pro&s;perity which thou wilt procure them; and let there be heard againe among the&s;e our Kingdomes the voyce of ioy and gladne&s;&s;e, of the Bride|groome and of the Bride, and in all mouth's, the voyce of pray&s;e and thank&s;giving unto the Lord of Ho&s;tes, becau&s;e his Mercy endureth for ever.</P>
