minister_n conclude_v thus_o for_o this_o cause_n etc._n etc._n and_o herein_o i_o see_v not_o the_o contrary_a but_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n have_v warrant_v to_o say_v the_o like_a namely_o that_o when_o we_o see_v a_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o a_o place_n and_o withal_o do_v see_v some_o great_a and_o common_a sin_n to_o reign_v among_o they_o we_o may_v safe_o put_v they_o in_o

be_v that_o this_o church_n and_o people_n be_v sick_a of_o and_o die_v it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o we_o to_o know_v that_o these_o sickness_n and_o disease_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v send_v be_v strange_a disease_n as_o may_v appear_v in_o that_o our_o apostle_n do_v take_v special_a notice_n of_o they_o which_o he_o will_v not_o have_v do_v if_o these_o have_v be_v ordinary_a the_o note_n

unfeigned_a repentance_n and_o turn_n unto_o the_o lord_n this_o be_v the_o way_n to_o stop_v the_o breach_n of_o god_n wrath_n and_o to_o move_v the_o lord_n to_o revoke_v his_o judgement_n and_o without_o which_o we_o shall_v but_o weary_v ourselves_o in_o vain_a for_o we_o must_v first_o remove_v the_o cause_n of_o god_n judgement_n our_o sin_n or_o else_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n can_v be_v
