The thankful Christian : A brief essay, upon those returns of thankfulness and obedience to the glorious God, in which there lies the most acceptable and ingenuous thanksgiving to him for his benefits. Address'd unto all that have received the favours of heaven; but more especially unto them, who after the good successes of a whaling-season, would express their gratitude unto God their Saviour. [One line from Psalms].
