Our weeping of compunction must be accompanied with reformation. Oh let the heat of that flame not only thaw our frozen hearts into tears of godly sorrow, but melt away the dross of our corruption; that the Fire which was consuming to our Houses, may be as a Refiners fire unto our lives. Let us pull down the strong holds of Atheism and Prophaness, Luxury and Uncleanness, blow up the Turrets of Pride and Ambition, Envy and Faction; burn up the Thorns and Bryars of Hatred and Malice, Covetousness and Oppression, the chaffe and rubbish of all manner of wickedness; that so God may be entreated to spare the remnant of our Habitations, and make up the ruines of those that are demolished, to give us beauty for ashes, and the oyle of gladness for the spirit of heaviness, when we shall behold a new London, (like the Phenix) rise more gloriously out of the ashes of the old. Amen, Amen. FINIS. |

O let the heat of that flame not only thaw our frozen hearts into tears of godly sorrow, but melt away the dross of our corruption; that the Fire which was consuming to our Houses, may be as a Refiners fire unto our lives. Let us pull down the strong holds of Atheism and Profaneness, Luxury and Uncleanness, blow up the Turrets of Pride and Ambition, Envy and Faction; burn up the Thorns and Briars of Hatred and Malice, Covetousness and Oppression, the chaff and rubbish of all manner of wickedness; that so God may be entreated to spare the remnant of our Habitations, and make up the ruins of those that Are demolished, to give us beauty for Ashes, and the oil of gladness for the Spirit of heaviness, when we shall behold a new London, (like the Phoenix) rise more gloriously out of the Ashes of the old.
