The Lord in his infinite mercy direct you in this great work(1) and we may see the wonderful power of God(2). In his most holy and wise providence, hath so disposed of...mankind(3). It is very observable what he profeseth of his affectionate partaking with every member(4). They fell upon their knees and bless the God of Heaven who had brought...the vast and furious ocean, and delivered them...all the perils and miseries thereof(5); and so [they] humbly kiss [his] gracious hands(6) which they digging up, found...filled with corn and...colours(7) beyond thy dull capacity(8). They came home on a Sabbath day...as black as the Devil(9). By him who hath enough to do(10), cast out...a flood for the carrying of...New Englanders...[to] the Devil's territories,...under our feet(11).
