And, honour'd Sirs, after the affair of this day is over, and the several branches of the legislature come to act in concert, it is to be desired, that you may all approve yourselves what by profession and character you are, the servants of the Lord JESUS CHRIST; a title which no man has any cause to be ashamed of, and which no angel or arch-angel, but is fond of; and that you manifest your love and loyalty to him, in a resolute and vigorous opposition to every thing that tends to obstruct his interest, and the flourishing of religion in the truth and purity of it among us;—And in a solemn and reverend regard to the DAY, the house and worship of GOD, and that a proper care be taken to prevent the great and scandalous disorders that some are chargeable with in these respects. I am sensible there are good and wholesome laws provided, to oblige all persons to attend the publick worship, and to prevent unnecessary travels upon the SABBATH; but how little regard is paid to them? They are every day trampled on, and in the open face of some in authority, and yet there is little or no notice taken of it: This is an iniquity to be punished by the judges; but if the civil officer neglects his duty, the whole land becomes guilty and must suffer for it, for there needs nothing more to make a sin publick, than that it is connived at by those, in whose power alone it is to suppress it.To draw to a close, Let us all practically acknow|ledge the regency of CHRIST, and submit to all his claims and demands upon us. Our duty herein is too evident to be disputed, and the consequent advantage of it is a dignity and felicity beyond all expression, thought or parallel. HEAVEN, with all its charms 0
