Acceſs and Oracles of Peace,
giving to us abroad.
By him the withred Rod bears Fruit,	Num. 17.7
with him is Manna hid:
The Law in him lyes clos'd from ſpeech,
except through Mercies Lid.
By him my Prayers are perfum'd,
and ſmell as Incenſe ſweet:	Heb. 7.
By him my Cup is furniſhed,
and Table fill'd with Meat.
The Prieſt, the Altar and the Lamb,
the Laver waſhing all:
And what elſe any Rite did ſign,
he fills up great and ſmall.
The judge that rids his People from	Col. 9. 17.
all Adverſaries Hand.
Our kindly King, by whom we may
poſſeſs that promis'd Land.
To all his Subjects affable,
above all earthly Kings:
His baſeſt Servants have his Ear
at all Times in all things.

and therefore muſt be mine,
Though I be baſe, yet will his Grace
to be my Love incline.	Iſa. 17. 15.

and will not now decline:
Oft hath his Love much ſweeter been:
to me than fineſt Wine.	Cant. 1. 2.
Oft hath the preaching of his Word,
in ſtraits and fears of Death,
As ſweeteſt Kiſſes been to me,
convey'd with lively breath,	Cant. 1. 2
