Wee have professed to enterprise these Actions, upon these and those accounts, upon these and those ends, wee have hereupon besought Him of favour and blessing. Now if the Lord shall please to heare us, and bring us in peace to the place wee desire, then hath hee ratified this Covenant and sealed our Commission, [and] will expect a strict performance of the Articles contained in it; but if wee shall neglect the observation of these Articles which are the ends wee have propounded, and, dissembling with our God, shall fall to embrace this present world and prosecute our carnall intentions, seekeing greate things for ourselves and our posterity, the Lord will surely breake out in wrathe against us; be revenged of such a perjured people and make us knowe the price of the breache of such a covenant.
