If thou wilt quench the flames, and withdraw the fewell of these Civill Wars:
If thou wilt bless us with the freedom of Publike Counsels, and deliver the Honour of Parliaments from the insolency of the vulgar:
If thou wilt keep me from the great offence of enacting any thing against my Conscience: and especially for consenting to sacrilegious rapines, and spoilings of thy Church:
If thou wilt restore me to a capacity to glorifie thee in doing good, both to the Church and State:
Then shall my soul praise thee, and Magnifie thy name before >my people.
Then shall thy glorie be dearer to me then my Crown; and the advancement of true Religion both in puritie and power be my chiefest care.
Then will I rule my People with justice, and my Kingdoms with equity:
To thy more immediate hand shal I ever own as the rightfull succession, so the mercifull restauration of my Kingdoms, and the glorie of them.
If thou wilt bring me again with Peace safetie and honour, to my chiefest City and my Parliament:
If thou wilt again put the Sword of Justice into my hand to punish and protect:
