الصفحة 300 - Remember, O Lord, what is come upon us: consider and behold our reproach. Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to aliens.
الصفحة 391 - Yet the enemy had obtained no advantage abroad : the State had been torn by no convulsion at home : the loyalty shown by the army and by the nation under severe trials had disappointed all the hopes of those who wished evil to England. Overtures tending to peace had been made. What might be the result of those overtures, was uncertain : but this was certain, that there could be no safe or honourable peace for a nation which was not prepared to wage vigorous war.
الصفحة 15 - of affairs abroad are such, that I think myself obliged to tell you my opinion, that, for the present, England cannot be safe without a land force ; and I hope we shall not give those that mean us ill the opportunity of effecting that under the notion of a peace which they could not bring to pass by war.
