A Protestant souldier's congratulation to the Prince of Orange, in a new letany, or, Prayers against Popery·: Being thought necessary to be added to the daily devotions of private families at all times, but more especially in this present juncture of affairs in England. By Captain Anthony Stampe, sometimes chief engineer and adjutant general to an active Protestant Army against the rebels in Ireland.

A Prayer against Oppression and Slavery.

O Almighty Lord, thou did'st open our Lips, that our Tongues should express the Miseries we were fallen into, for thou art a Compassionate God, and hath pro∣mised unto those which truly rely on thee, that thou wilt not leave them nor forsake them, who shall call upon thy holy Name in time of need, and thy Ears shall not be stop∣ped from hearing the complaints of the oppressed, and when thou seest it fit, thou wilt then relieve them. We do with humble Thankfulness confess thou hast heard us, and answered us too out of thy loving Kindness, when we were even in our greatest Extremities, gasping as it were, expecting every moment to have our Throats cut by the bloody Conspiracy of the Papists, who are professed Ene∣mies to thy Church, which was not only threatned upon us, but preparations were visibly making to effect their de∣testable designs upon us; at a time we were helpless in our selves, lying under the cruel Bondage of Slavery: had we resisted them in our restraint, they had made it Rebellion in us, and our Remedy had been worse to us than our Dis∣ease, but we patiently submitted under our heavy Yoke, to thy determinate Will, tho' our Afflictions were grievous unto us, to wait upon thy good time for our deliverance from our Mortal Adversaries, the Papists in the mean while drove Jehu like, on their pre-meditated murthering Re∣solutions

not to leave one Protestant alive in England, which thou hast prevented them in, whereby we might live to Glorifie thy Name for ever. Amen.
