And now I have said what was upon my Spirit for your sake, when, for the satisfaction of such as (through its effect upon your soule) this Addresse of mine may possibly come to, I have religiously declared, that the Person who writ it, had no unworthy or sinister design of his owne to gratifie, much lesse any other party whatever; as being neither _Courtier_, _Souldier_, or _Church-man_, but a plain Country Gentleman, engag'd on neither side, who, has had leisure, (through the goodnesse of God) candidly, and without passion to examine the particulars which he has touched, and expects no other reward in the successe of it, then what _Christ_ has promised in the _Gospels_: The _Benediction{5} of the peace maker_; and which he already feels in the discharge of his Conscience being for his own particular, long since resolv'd with himself, to persist in his Religion, and his loyalty to the death; come what will; as wrongfully perswaded, that all the persecutions, losses, and other accidents which may arrive him for it here, _are not worthy to be compared to that eternall{6} weight of glory which is to be revealed hereafter_; and to the inexpressible consolation, which it will afford on his _Death-bed_, when all these guilded pleasures will disappear, this noise, and empty pompe, when God shall _set all out sins in order before us_; and when, it is certain, that the humble, and the peaceable, the charitable and the meek shall not loose their reward, not change their hopes, for all the Crownes and the Scepters, the Lawrells and the Trophies which ambitious and self seeking men contend for, with so much Tyrannie and injustice.
