ALmighty and most gracious God, we bless and magnify thy great and glorious Name, for thy late Mercies to us of these Kingdoms, in raising up thy Servant King WILLIAM to be a Deliverer to us in the day of our Distress, and to rescue us from Popish Tyranny and Superstition and all those Miseries and Calamities which were ready to break in upon us. We also acknowledge with all thankfulness the wonderful Success which thou hast been pleased to give to their Majesty's Forces in Ireland, even to th● entire Reducing of that Kingdom. More especially, we bless thee for thy merciful preservation of the King from the great and manifold Dangers to which his Royal Person was exposed during his late Expedition; and that of thy great goodness thou hast been pleased to restore him to us in safety, to the great Comfort and joy of thy People: Humbly beseeching thee still to continue their Majesties under the watchful Care of thy Providence; and to protect their Sacred Persons from all secret Practices and open Violence, that no Weapon, no Design form against them may prosper: And to make them at last the happy Instruments of Establishing that great Deliverance which thy Providence by them hath wrought for us in so visible a manner, that all the World may see that Thou art our Saviour and mighty Deliverer: Which we humbly beg for thy Mercies sake in jesus Christ, our Blessed Saviour and Redeemer. Amen. FINIS.
