the_o city_n of_o constance_n but_o present_o upon_o it_o a_o infectious_a plague_n do_v wonderful_o waste_v that_o city_n god_n of_o his_o infinite_a mercy_n grant_v we_o such_o true_a repentance_n

their_o grief_n and_o misery_n sundry_a be_v the_o remedy_n which_o be_v describe_v by_o sundry_a writer_n against_o the_o danger_n of_o lightning_n some_o of_o they_o be_v philosophical_a meet_a as_o when_o they_o appoint_v that_o in_o thunder_n and_o lightning_n man_n shall_v either_o shoot_v up_o ordinance_n into_o to_o the_o air_n or_o ring_v bell_n that_o by_o the_o stir_n of_o the_o air_n
