To the Worthy COVENANTER.

I Could have given more, and more easie and common Observations; but these times call for Di courses that work higher, and more quaintly; I say not this to force any reputation upon the notions.

This Covenant is the most glorious rise of a Reformation in any age; mighty and powerfull are the Principles of it; and though this season of our Solemnity be cloudie, and our evening bloodie, yet it is our Saviours Interpre∣tation; When it is evening, you say it will be fair weather, for the skie is red.
