The Honor of {God} is deeply concerned in this af-
fair, and we should have a single Regard to
it. The Glory of {God} is much interested in {the}
publick welfare, and Peace of a people; &
ergo it concerns all to promote {the} genera;

or true Liberty remaining in our minds.
And if so, {then} we are just fit for {the} Din-
geries of Abject Slavery, & are nigh unto
Cursing; & must expect shortly to be under
{the} Yoke of Bord-Men, to be H[eavens?] of Wood
& D[rowem?] of Water. - What Soul can
quench {the} [martial?] fire from kindling
into a Flame, when {God} & our Contry so
loudly call upon us to be of good courage,
& to play {the} Man for our People, & for {the}

This must live {the] Breath of {the} Valiantest of
Men for the Defence of the Rest. - That
