Bless we Therefore our God that in any degree we Are, and pray that we still more may be, Delivered out of the hands of our enemies, that we may serve him without Fear all the days of our lives, Lycia 1. 74. The less cause we have slavishly to Fear men, the more reason we have religiously to Fear our God.
