A01371 A watch-vvorde for warre Not so new as necessary: published by reason of the disperced rumors amongst vs, and the suspected comming of the Spanyard against vs. Wherein we may learne how to prepare our selues to repell the enemie, and to behaue our selues all the tyme of that trouble. Compendious for the memorie, comfortable for the matter, profitable for the matter, profitable for the tyme. Gibbon, Charles, fl. 1589-1604. 1596 (1596) STC 11492; ESTC S117690 33,754 62

all_o other_o war_n be_v most_o fearful_a famous_a it_o be_v most_o fearful_a in_o many_o respect_n for_o first_o if_o we_o faint_v in_o this_o fight_n it_o be_v common_o the_o cause_n of_o all_o

that_o god_n never_o send_v war_n but_o in_o his_o wrath_n the_o lord_n himself_o speak_v of_o jerusalem_n which_o be_v besiege_v by_o the_o enemy_n say_v in_o my_o wrath_n i_o smite_v thou_o esay_n 60_o 10._o in_o the_o 2_o and_z 3_o chapter_n of_o the_o judge_n the_o lord_n send_v and_o set_v the_o enemy_n against_o the_o isralite_n many_o time_n it_o appear_v in_o those_o place_n that_o he_o never_o do_v it_o but_o when_o his_o wrath_n or_o anger_n be_v kindle_v against_o they_o now_o the_o anger_n of_o god_n be_v grievous_a for_o the_o prophet_n say_v of_o he_o that_o he_o smite_v the_o people_n in_o anger_n with_o a_o continual_a plague_n isaiah_n 14_o 6._o solomon_n say_v that_o the_o king_n wrath_n be_v like_o the_o roar_a of_o a_o lion_n pro._n 19_o than_o what_o be_v his_o wrath_n who_o be_v king_n of_o king_n this_o shall_v move_v we_o to_o take_v this_o course_n we_o see_v when_o the_o prince_n be_v displease_v with_o his_o vassal_n he_o will_v use_v all_o mean_n to_o

way_n to_o appease_v he_o for_o fear_v he_o give_v we_o over_o to_o the_o lust_n of_o our_o enemy_n and_o therefore_o let_v every_o one_o of_o we_o pray_v with_o daniel_n and_o say_v as_o he_o do_v in_o the_o like_a case_n o_o lord_n according_a to_o all_o thy_o righterusnesse_n i_o beseech_v thou_o let_v thy_o anger_n and_o thy_o wrath_n be_v turn_v away_o dan._n 9_o 16._o 3_o his_o love_n by_o

the_o child_n unless_o he_o be_v sometime_o beat_v he_o fall_v to_o all_o unbrideled_a looseness_n so_o it_o fare_v with_o we_o if_o we_o shall_v not_o sometime_o feel_v god_n affliction_n we_o

1._o 2_o a_o reprehension_n this_o concern_v we_o we_o be_v ready_a to_o rail_v and_o curse_v the_o spaniard_n that_o mole_v we_o but_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n we_o do_v not_o remember_v he_o be_v
