A53112	The complaint of English subjects delivered in two parts. First part, is the complaint, of the poor, middle, and meanest sorts of subjects, concerning their bodily assistance. Second part, is the true Christians complaint, against vice, and wickedness, for the good of their soul's health. Also, werein is set forth, the late prodigious growth, of atheism, errors, and vice: with a call to repentance. As also, how needful it is, in these times, for every one of us, first of all, to look into our own hearts, and endeavour to amend what is their amiss. And lastly, a brief discourse, concerning our late unfruitful, and cold summers: as also, what is thought to be the real causes of it, by way of opposition, to the opinion of astrologers.

which_o god_n in_o process_n of_o time_n grant_v unto_o she_o and_o not_o only_o a_o mere_a manchild_n do_v the_o lord_n give_v unto_o hannah_n but_o such_o a_o manchild_n as_o afterward_o become_v a_o excellent_a prophet_n of_o the_o lord_n who_o name_n be_v samuel_n and_o after_o that_o i_o find_v beside_o samuel_n hannah_n have_v by_o her_o husband_n elkanah_n several_a son_n and_o daughter_n as_o you_o may_v read_v it_o in_o the_o 2d_o chapter_n of_o the_o one_a book_n of_o samuel_n vers_fw-la 21._o and_o thus_o we_o may_v see_v by_o those_o precedent_n offer_v and_o mention_v in_o these_o several_a scripture_n herein_o quote_v and_o also_o by_o several_a other_o place_n of_o scripture_n the_o like_a precedent_n may_v be_v find_v and_o by_o all_o of_o they_o it_o may_v be_v plain_o see_v how_o much_o prayer_n and_o tear_n have_v always_o from_o time_n to_o time_n prevail_v with_o god_n when_o they_o have_v be_v offer_v up_o unto_o he_o with_o true_a devout_a and_o sincere_a heart_n and_o therefore_o i_o think_v it_o will_v not_o be_v amiss_o but_o rather_o think_v it_o very_o necessary_a and_o needful_a for_o we_o all_o with_o true_a devotion_n now_o to_o offer_v up_o our_o prayer_n with_o tear_n and_o desire_v god_n to_o give_v every_o one_o of_o we_o a_o heart_n fit_a for_o true_a repentance_n and_o amendment_n of_o life_n which_o if_o we_o will_v all_o of_o we_o so_o pray_v and_o endeavour_v so_o to_o do_v than_o no_o question_n may_v be_v make_v of_o it_o but_o that_o god_n will_v yet_o show_v we_o mercy_n and_o then_o we_o shall_v have_v the_o blessing_n of_o the_o lord_n return_v upon_o we_o which_o now_o seem_v to_o be_v depart_v from_o we_o read_v the_o second_o chapter_n of_o the_o prophet_n joel_n vers_fw-la 12_o 13_o 14._o therefore_o also_o now_o say_v the_o lord_n turn_v you_o even_o unto_o i_o with_o all_o your_o heart_n and_o with_o fast_v and_o with_o weep_v and_o with_o mourning_n and_o rend_v your_o heart_n and_o not_o your_o garment_n and_o turn_v unto_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n for_o he_o be_v gracious_a and_o merciful_a slow_a to_o anger_n and_o of_o great_a kindness_n and_o repent_v he_o of_o the_o evil_n who_o know_v if_o he_o will_v return_v and_o repent_v and_o leave_v a_o blessing_n behind_o he_o even_o a_o meat-offering_a and_o a_o drink-offering_a unto_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n but_o again_o i_o say_v that_o god_n do_v sometime_o by_o the_o disorder_n of_o the_o elementary_a part_n of_o this_o world_n bring_v upon_o the_o earth_n dearth_n and_o famine_n itself_o be_v plain_a by_o what_o god_n himself_o make_v know_v to_o pharaoh_n in_o his_o dream_n for_o god_n do_v not_o only_o make_v know_v unto_o he_o that_o he_o will_v bring_v a_o famine_n upon_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n but_o by_o what_o mean_v the_o famine_n shall_v come_v be_v also_o make_v know_v unto_o pharaoh_n in_o his_o dream_n and_o that_o to_o be_v by_o mean_n of_o unseasonable_a wether_n as_o violent_a east-wind_n which_o shall_v blast_v and_o wither_v the_o cornfield_n so_o as_o that_o they_o shall_v come_v to_o no_o perfection_n to_o bear_v corn_n for_o the_o egyptian_n to_o have_v bread_n out_o of_o they_o as_o you_o may_v read_v it_o in_o the_o 41_o chapter_n of_o genesis_n the_o 6_o the_o 23d_o and_o 27_o verse_n again_o i_o say_v that_o god_n have_v and_o yet_o can_v by_o his_o immediate_a power_n that_o he_o have_v over_o all_o the_o elementary_a body_n alter_v and_o change_v the_o wether_n as_o he_o see_v most_o fit_a either_o by_o way_n of_o mercy_n or_o judgement_n be_v plain_a and_o also_o that_o it_o be_v man_n iniquity_n that_o do_v oftentimes_o provoke_v god_n to_o bring_v upon_o the_o earth_n dearth_n and_o want_v and_o famine_n itself_o be_v plain_o to_o be_v see_v and_o understand_v if_o man_n will_v but_o consult_v serious_o within_o themselves_o these_o follow_a scripture_n which_o i_o shall_v here_o quote_v unto_o you_o which_o you_o may_v read_v at_o your_o leisure_n jeremiah_n 5_o chap._n vers_fw-la 24_o 25._o ezekiel_n four_o chap._n vers_fw-la 16_o 17._o hosea_n 2d_o chap._n vers_fw-la 8_o 9_o read_v joel_n the_o one_a chapter_n all_o over_o from_o the_o beginning_n to_o the_o end_n thereof_o amos_n four_o chapter_n vers_fw-la 6_o 7._o and_o last_o look_v in_o the_o 14_o chapter_n of_o the_o prophet_n ezekiel_n vers_fw-la 12_o 13_o 14._o it_o be_v there_o thus_o write_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v again_o to_o i_o say_v son_n of_o man_n when_o the_o land_n sin_v against_o i_o by_o trespass_v grievous_o then_o will_v i_o stretch_v out_o my_o hand_n upon_o it_o and_o will_v break_v the_o staff_n of_o the_o bread_n thereof_o and_o will_v send_v famine_n upon_o it_o and_o will_v cut_v off_o man_n and_o beast_n from_o it_o though_o these_o three_o man_n noah_n daniel_n and_o job_n be_v in_o it_o they_o shall_v deliver_v but_o their_o own_o soul_n by_o their_o righteousness_n say_v the_o lord_n god_n and_o thus_o we_o may_v see_v that_o when_o man_n by_o their_o iniquity_n do_v provoke_v god_n to_o anger_n then_o in_o his_o wrath_n he_o immediate_o change_v and_o disorder_v the_o heavenly_a body_n or_o other_o elementary_a part_n of_o the_o world_n as_o he_o please_v and_o thus_o work_v by_o his_o own_o secondary_a cause_n as_o he_o think_v most_o fit_a he_o can_v when_o he_o please_v with_o hold_v these_o good_a thing_n of_o the_o world_n from_o we_o and_o also_o from_o this_o last_o text_n of_o scripture_n just_o now_o here_o quote_v we_o may_v observe_v that_o when_o the_o black_a deed_n of_o the_o wicked_a be_v many_o and_o that_o they_o be_v so_o much_o overgrow_v that_o they_o do_v superabound_v then_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o righteous_a can_v prevail_v with_o god_n no_o long_o to_o prevent_v the_o pour_v down_o of_o his_o judgement_n upon_o the_o head_n of_o wicked_a man_n for_o then_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o righteous_a only_o for_o the_o deliverance_n of_o their_o own_o soul_n shall_v be_v hear_v and_o not_o for_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o now_o i_o say_v again_o these_o beforementioned_a scripture_n do_v make_v it_o out_o plain_a that_o all_o disorder_n both_o in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n from_o time_n to_o time_n be_v always_o perform_v by_o the_o immediate_a hand_n of_o god_n and_o not_o as_o astrologer_n say_v only_o from_o the_o course_n of_o the_o star_n as_o they_o be_v ordain_v to_o be_v in_o their_o first_o creation_n and_o therefore_o i_o must_v now_o say_v again_o that_o no_o astrologer_n or_o any_o other_o man_n of_o any_o other_o vain_a science_n whatsoever_o can_v foretell_v by_o the_o course_n of_o the_o star_n or_o by_o any_o other_o way_n whatsoever_o what_o shall_v fall_v out_o or_o come_v to_o pass_v either_o of_o plague_n or_o famine_n or_o what_o shall_v be_v the_o event_n of_o war_n or_o who_o shall_v have_v the_o victory_n or_o foreknow_v by_o the_o calculate_v of_o nativity_n what_o shall_v befall_v any_o man_n or_o man_n or_o what_o year_n will_v be_v fruitful_a or_o unfruitful_a for_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v secret_n and_o only_o belong_v to_o god_n himself_o and_o not_o unto_o man_n except_o out_o of_o his_o own_o goodness_n and_o mere_a pleasure_n in_o mercy_n to_o some_o of_o his_o own_o choose_a one_o he_o be_v please_v to_o reveal_v these_o his_o secret_n to_o such_o man_n as_o he_o think_v most_o fit_a to_o pour_v out_o his_o spirit_n upon_o they_o to_o that_o purpose_n and_o for_o that_o end_n to_o preserve_v his_o own_o people_n as_o may_v be_v see_v in_o that_o of_o pharaoh_n for_o god_n do_v not_o forewarn_a pharaoh_n king_n of_o egypt_n of_o what_o he_o be_v about_o to_o do_v whole_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o pharaoh_n himself_o or_o for_o the_o egyptian_n sake_n but_o most_o for_o the_o advancement_n of_o joseph_n and_o then_o consequent_o for_o the_o preservation_n of_o all_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o none_o of_o the_o magician_n or_o any_o of_o the_o wise_a man_n of_o egypt_n can_v interpret_v pharoah_n dream_n for_o it_o be_v only_a god_n choose_a one_o that_o can_v do_v it_o who_o be_v joseph_n and_o that_o not_o of_o himself_o but_o by_o the_o inspiration_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o joseph_n himself_o acknowledge_v in_o this_o same_o 41_o chapter_n of_o genesis_n and_o the_o 16_o verse_n it_o be_v there_o say_v and_o joseph_n answer_v pharaoh_n say_v it_o be_v not_o in_o i_o god_n shall_v give_v pharaoh_n a_o answer_n of_o peace_n again_o i_o say_v that_o the_o revelation_n of_o secret_n do_v only_o belong_v unto_o god_n and_o not_o unto_o such_o man_n as_o be_v call_v astrologer_n but_o when_o god_n think_v fit_a he_o reveal_v they_o to_o his_o own_o choose_a one_o as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o
