Lord if thou wilt be intreated to let it alone this year, I will dig about it and dung it, I will do all that Art and Industry can do, I will not be wanting on my part to perform the most, the best, All that I can, to make it Fruitful. Note, first, in general, they who would prevail with God, must add endeavours to their Prayers, 'tis but a tempting and mocking God to do otherwise, Ora & Labora; and 'tis a good direction, the Adage gives, Manus ad Stivam, oculus ad Coelum. |
