Give laud, &c.

And shall not the most High avenge his own Elect, Which night and day do c••y, and pray to that effect? Though he bear long, I tell you, he will speedily avenge their wrong.

Rom. 8.36. Psal. 44.23, 24.

But we are killed thus all day for thy dear sake, As sheep they count of us which they for slaughter take. O God arise, Why dost thou yet our griefs forge••, and our sad cries?

2 Thes. 1.6, 7.

But ye, that thus Afflicted are, shall surely share sweet peace with us.
