shot Three Arrows against us and how easily can he shoot a Fourth Tore Arrow that of the Famine unless we turn from our Sins by true Repentance It is to be feared that after all that hath or can be said to reclaim men from their evil Courses and excesses in Drinking that they will be swayed by Custome which is a second Nature and it will be found as difficult for them to be temperate in Smoking and Drinking and Feasting as it is for the Blackmore to change his Skin or the Leopard his Spots So that they will rather say as he that being advised by his Physician to leave of his evil Courses or else he would loose his Sigh answered Tum valeat lumen amicum Then sarewel sweet Light To such it may be said as Solomon saith Rejoyce O young man in thy Youth walk in the sight of thine Eyes and let thy Heart chear thee but remember that for all these things God will bring thee to Judgment We all know That Sin is the fore-runner of all Plagues and Calamities that ever came upon any People or Nation under Heaven it is the Plague of Plagues What provoked God to drown the old World but Sin What caused God to rain down Fire and Brimstone on Sodom and Gomorrah but their Sins of Pride Idleness and fulness of Bread And whilst Abraham interceded for Sodom had there been but Ten righteous persons found amongst them God would have spared them for their sakes Thus I have spoken against Sin in general as that which draws down Judgments upon our Heads I will only lay a few Scriptures before you touching the Lord's anger against Sin which he cannot indure to behold without great indignation For it is only Sin that makes a separation between God and our Souls and I desire the Reader to turn to them at his leisure and to make the best use and application of them Hosea 4. 1 2 3.

That Sea-man that being ingaged in a Ship and sees it in danger to sink or to be cast away is but an ill and unworthy Seaman that will not put to his helping hand to save her And are not all English-men engaged in the Ship of the Kingdom or Common-wealth of England and is it not in a Storm compassed with Enemies without and within molested and assaulted with the most dangerous Enemies of all over-laden with our grand Enemies Sins of all sorts Is it not the part of an honest true English-man to help to save this Ship by lightening its burden and casting these bad Commodities over-board I mean its Sins that by so doing we may engage God the Lord of Hosts on our side and then si Deus nobiscum ●uis contra nos Did but England's Sins weigh lighter then her Enemies Sins then we were more likely to be Victorious and Conquerors over all our Forreign Enemies Doth not England match any of her Enemies in Sins and Provocations namely Drunkenness Doth it come behind the Dutch Dane or Swede which are counted the highest Drinkers in the World of the highest form and so for swearing most horrible Oaths and scoffing at Religion and Piety Within ten days since I began this Collection or Postscript I was an Eye and Ear-witness That a swaggering Blade rapt out this Oath God damn me about a trifle in a scoffing Frolick saying He had got a Presbyterian Band on he thought Another man on Whitson-Eve I saw so sadly drunk he could neither go nor stand but sate down on a Door-stone I asked him Where he had been He would give no other Answer but this That he was troubled with the Megromes So I and others about him left him and know not what became of him These two were in the heart of the City near the Exchange After I had seen King James his Counterblast against Tobacco and taken a liking to it I did at the first intend only to get that printed alone but afterwards meeting with these pertinent sutable and profitable Directions for the preservation of long Life both against Tobacco and intemperate drinking Published in the Works of that learned Physician Doctor Maynwaring now living I thought it not amiss to joyn them together and likewise to add a good old Sermon at the latter end Preached in or near the time of King James by a ●●mous Learned Divine Mr. Samuel Ward then Preacher of Ipswich printed 1627. It is but brief and the best I know of in print against the Sin of Drunkenness and Health-drinking wherein are discovered divers sad Examples of many that have been notorious Drinkers or Drunkards called Woe to Drunkards that have kill'd themselves by drinking immoderately In the last place I shall but commend to the Reader a few good useful Books viz. Mr. Thomas Brook's Londons Lamentations also his Book called Precious Remedies against Satan's Devices and his Twenty two Sermons on Ephes 3. 8.

Mr. Ralph Venning's Book called Sin the Plague of Plagues or sinful Sin the worst of Evils on Rom. 7. 13. These Books do set forth Sin in its own proper colours it is compared in Scripture to filthy Rags and to a menstruous Cloth and I think it cannot be called by so bad a name as it is Also lately Published Mr. Robert Perrot's new Book called Englands Sole and Soveraign way of being saved Mr. Calamie's Godly mans Ark which I think is a useful and seasonable Book these stormy Times Now we are pursued by Enemies on all sides outward and inward it 's good to get into an Ark or City of Refuge These are sold at the Three Bibles in Popes head Alley where the best and newest short-hand Books and Books of Divinity are to be had Also History Husbandry Astronomy Mathematicks Arithmetick Law Sea Physick the best Poetry School Books c.

The rise and progress of Physick Historically Chronologically and Philosophically illustrated shewing The abuse of Medicines c. 4. His Treatise Of Consumptions demonstrating their Nature and Cure 5. The ancient and modern Practice of Physick examined stated and compared The true Elixir Proprieta●i● of Van Helmont Paracelsus Crollius with a Book of its use and vertue highly cominended by Mr. Lilly As for other Books of vain idle Romances Lascivious and Vitious Poetry and Drollery which are worse then the Smoke of Tobacco and more fit for the Fire to make Smoke of then for the Study I wish the Lovers of them to take notice of this one Passage about such in Mr. Philip Goodwin's Mystery of Drunkenness printed for Francis Tyton it is in Page 50.
