And if any shall prove so untoward and perfidious, their iniquitie shall be upon themselves, and they _shall bear their punishment_: Deliverance and good successe shall follow those who with purpose of heart cleave unto the Lord, and whose hearts are upright toward his glory. When wee look back upon the great things which GOD hath done for us, and our former deliverances out of several dangers and difficulties which appeared to us insuperable, _experience breeds hope_: And when we consider how in the midst of all our sorrows and pressures, the _Lord our God hath given us a naile in his holy place_, and hath lightned our eyes with the desireable and beautiful sight of his own glory in his Temple, we take it for an argument that he hath yet _thoughts of peace_, and a purpose of mercy toward us; _Though for a small moment he hath forsaken us, yet with great mercies he will gather us_ as Hee hath lifted up our Enemies, that their fall may be the greater, and that he may cast them downe into desolation for ever. _Arise, and let us be doing; The Lord of Hosts is with us, the God of Jacob is our Refuge._ _Act against Lykwakes._ Whereas the corrupt Custome of Lykwakes hath fostered both Superstition and Profanitie through the Land, This present Assembly Discharges the same intime comming, And appoints Presbyteries To take speciall care for trying and censuring the Transgressors of this Act within their several Bounds. _Act recommending to Sessions To have the Printed Acts of Assemblie._ The General Assembly, considering how necessar it is, That every Session in a Parish have the Acts of the Assembly for their use, Doth therefore seriously recommend to every Parish and Session To buy the Printed Acts of the Assembly; and Ordains Presbyteries To crave account hereof from every Minister, before their going to Provinciall Assemblies: And likewise, That every Provinciall Assembly, crave account from Presbyteries in their trials, if every Session be so provided, and that they try the diligence, of Presbyteries and Ministers used for that effect. 13. _Februar. 1645. Postmeridiem._ Sess. Ult. _Act for censuring the Observers of Yule-day, and other superstitious dayes, especially if they be Schollars._
