summary:
  Mustapha returnes with this answer , that if they would come forth they should bee most welcome , and couragiously received , but to their owne perills ; and that if it fortuned they to carry him , he must have patience : but if it fortune he to carry them , as he hoped in the mercy of Jesus and the vertue of their patron S. Marke he should , they must have the like ; he also saw the Venetians well armed , and having delivered this answer to Ally hee is not a little perplexed ; the Venetian on their parts as vigellent as the Turke , had there especially some Turkes , others Albinesses , and Iewes of the countrey , by whom hee got daily information of the Turkes proceedings , excellently well playd on their parts ; they imployed Turkes averse in religion and condition to the Christians , who without suspition every day eate and dranke with the enemy : Consequently the better able to informe the Albinesses and Iewes they imployed to accuse the validitie or invaliditie of the Turkes , reports the Venetian conformable to good intelligence , ordereth his Armatha , the Gallyasses were placed where the Turkes must passe , if they attempted it ; and every night having their Frigats and Boats which came under the Castle walls , and to the very Prowes of the Gallies which so daunted the Turkes that they now utterly dissisted from their resolution of combate , and all amort are devising a new way to secure the Slaves , if the Venetian should land his Forces , and ayme to fetch them off by force : 500. of us were put into a Tower in the Castle ; all lying 10. and 10. in chaines , a place as darke as Pitch , and a foot thicke in dust , but it s now seven weekes since the arrivall of the Venetian Armatha in this Port , and their Gally sent to Venice for further order is returned , the Prince and Sinod authenticats Marine Capellas doings , that what his excellence should doe , should bee well done , nor does hee omit any time to illustrate his zeale to the divine majestie and valour to ruenate so many miscrante enemies to the faith of Christ : who as breake of day commences a second battaile with thundering off great Ordnance , and vallies of small Shot ; for although the Venetians carries not so many Souldiers in their Gallies as the Turke does , yet have they this advantage of them , that upon any occasion they arme their Bonavollies and condemned men , who upon promise of libertie or other reward will fight bravely ; the Turke leaves their Gallies and runnes into the Castle , Christians they force to be Gunners , the two Galliasses with 4. other smaller Gallies , batters that Castle whilest the others board the Turkish Gallies , lay their fasts to them , and roaes them away ; thus Nobly did the Venetian end this fight in lesse than an houre , to their glory and the infamie of the Barberiscos : great murmerings were now amongst the Turkes against Ally their Generall , who has no other way to escape their furie and revenge , but by open handed liberalitie , wherein he promised to relieve the Souldiers present necessitie : men , chiefest in the Citie for esteeme ; in that they were descended from the ancient Turkes , which conquered that country , and in substance the richest hope is of that noble and couragions facultie that it commonly brings more then it carries away .

  Trade preferr'd before religion and Christ made to give place to Mammon represented in a sermon relating to the plantations : first preached at Westminster-Abbey and afterwards in divers churches in London / by Morgan Godwyn ...

summary:
  And like a most religious Assertor , and zealous Patron of the Faith once delivered to the Saints ; Your Majesty declaring it most reasonable , that all Men should be made to partake of the Grace of God , so freely in Christ tendred unto them ; and that none should be debarred of the common Salvation , especially such who do so much hunger and thirst after it . But Your Majesty cannot but know how unworthy ( even at the best ) this Plea is of a Christian Nation : and withal , how incongruous and mean it is that for Trade ( even allowing the Pretence for good ) the Work of God should be destroyed ; and those Myriads of Souls be made to perish , for whom Christ died , no less than for the residue of Mankind .

Caesar assur'd him , he was proof against all the Charms of that Sex ; and that if he imagin'd his Heart cou'd be so perfidious to Love again , after Imoinda , he believ'd he shou'd tear it from his Bosom : They had no sooner spoke , but a little shock Dog , that Clemene had presented her , which she took great Delight in , ran out ; and she , not knowing any body was there , ran to get it in again , and bolted out on those who were just Speaking of her :

summary:
  I confess , for a Goal , it 's one of the best Built that I have seen ; there 's nothing that the Soul of Man bears with more regret than Restraint : The Body it self is judged by some to be but the Soul's Little-ease , or Cage ; where though it seems to Dwell , yet 't is but in Honourable Durance ; and though it dares not break the Prison , yet it listens ; and longs for a Goal-Delivery : There can be nothing large enough for a Soul but God , from whom since it once at first came , it must needs be restless till it return to him again ; and surely it has much forgot it self , and extract , if it can take up with satisfaction in any thing on this side its Creator . 2006-09 TCP Assigned for keying and markup 2006-09 Aptara Keyed and coded from ProQuest page images 2008-06 Taryn Hakala Sampled and proofread 2008-06 Taryn Hakala Text and markup reviewed and edited 2008-09 pfs Batch review (QC) and XML conversion EBEN-EZER : OR , A SMALL MONUMENT OF GREAT MERCY , APPEARING IN THE Miraculous Deliverance OF William Okeley , Williams Adams , John Anthony , John Jephs , John — Carpenter , From the Miserable Slavery of ALGIERS , with the wonderful Means of their Escape in a Boat of Canvas ; the great Distress , and utmost Extremities which they endured at Sea for Six Days and Nights ; their safe Arrival at Mayork ; With several Matters of Remarque during their long Captivity , and the following Providences of God which brought them safe to ENGLAND .

  Friendly advice to the gentlemen-planters of the East and West Indies In three parts. I. A brief treatise of the most principal fruits and herbs that grow in the East & West Indies; giving an account of their respective vertues both for food and physick, and what planet and sign they are under. Together with some directions for the preservation of health and life in those hot climates. II. The complaints of the negro-slaves against the hard usages and barbarous cruelties inflicted upon them. III. A discourse in way of dialogue, between an Ethiopean or negro-slave, and a Christian that was his master in America. By Philotheos Physiologus.

summary:
  Besides , People in hot Regions have not need of so many things , there is no occasion for their Houses being so close nor furnisht with so many Circumstances of Beds and Bedding , continual Fires , and the like Provisional Accommodations to be laid up before-hand , either for Man or Beast ; as also half the Clothing will furnish Nature ; and the same is to be understood of Foods ; for all things necessary to the Maintenance of Life are far easier , and with half the Labour procured in hot Countries . Therefore since we have obtained the favour to plead our own Cause , we will be bold to tell our Masters , that these things cannot be otherwise , it being the eternal Law of God in Nature , that whatever Evil , Violence or Oppression is committed , either by Superior or Inferior , if not repented of , there must be a time of Retaliation either in this World , or that to come , according to the Nature of the Evil ; for as there is such an Affinity between man and man , that they can move each other either to Love or Hate , so there is a proportionate Similitude between him and the Coelestial Bodies and Elements , Man being not only the Image and Likeness of God and Nature , but the Horizon of both Worlds , in whom the superior and inferior Natures are conjoyned , and have their Intercourse ; for he is the Off-spring of the Stars , as well as the Sun of the Earth .
