APPENDIX. 561 



MOST GRACIOUS SOVEREIGN, 



The same individual Definition of my Water-work, which 

 I formerly presumed to put into Your Soyal Hands, I again adven 

 ture to present to Your Majesty ; praying Your Belief of it, as Your 

 Majesty shall find it true by comparing it with the real Effect ; 

 which, if found punctually agreeing, Vouchsafe then not to be apt 

 hereafter to lend a believing Ear to such persons, as Malice causeth 

 to detract from, or Ignorance to slight what shall (though never so 

 seemingly strange) be averr d by me, who will never be convinced of 

 a Ealshood in &quot;Word or Deed towards Your Sacred Majesty ; before 

 whom I shall ever speak as in the presence of Almighty God, whose 

 Vicegerent on Earth I deem You : And to Your Majesties traiis- 

 centdent Judgment I submit all, and will presume to subscribe 

 my self, 



SIR, 



Your Sacred Majesties 



Faithfully-Devoted and passionately- 

 Affected, Useful, if cherished, 



Subject and Servant, WORCESTER.
