9_o 14._o when_o god_n do_v punish_v a_o person_n or_o a_o people_n especial_o if_o it_o be_v in_o a_o notable_a manner_n than_o ãâã_d âe_v say_v to_o plague_v they_o gen._n 12._o 17._o the_o lord_n plague_v pharaoh_n and_o his_o house_n exod._n 32._o 35._o the_o lord_n plague_v the_o people_n and_o so_o in_o other_o place_n but_o plague_n in_o the_o text_n be_v take_v for_o a_o certain_a malignant_a and_o infectious_a disease_n distinguish_v by_o that_o name_n from_o other_o disease_n every_o judgement_n be_v a_o plague_n but_o this_o in_o the_o text_n be_v the_o plague_n as_o all_o sin_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d wickedness_n but_o malice_n be_v especial_o in_o scripture_n call_v ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d ãâã_d because_o it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a wickedness_n so_o every_o disease_n every_o punishment_n may_v be_v call_v a_o plague_n but_o there_o be_v a_o pestilent_a burn_a contagious_a distemper_n unto_o which_o the_o name_n of_o plague_n be_v appropriate_v because_o it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a punishment_n incident_a unto_o a_o people_n the_o very_a first_o break_v out_o of_o it_o be_v terrible_a it_o be_v wont_a to_o

for_o they_o for_o there_o ãâã_d wrath_n go_v out_o from_o the_o lord_n the_o plague_n be_v begin_v the_o proposition_n i_o will_v give_v you_o from_o hence_o be_v this_o that_o the_o plague_n be_v a_o dreadful_a judgement_n a_o sign_n of_o god_n great_a wrath_n after_o i_o have_v p_o ove_v this_o i_o will_v answer_v three_o question_n subjoine_v a_o cauâion_n and_o so_o come_v to_o application_n that_o the_o plague_n be_v a_o featful_a judgement_n and_o token_n of_o god_n wrath_n be_v easy_a to_o demonstrate_v when_o thing_n be_v more_o than_o ordinary_o dreadful_a it_o render_v the_o very_a name_n dreadful_a too_o the_o dreadfulness_n of_o damnation_n make_v the_o very_a sound_n of_o the_o word_n terrible_a and_o methink_v the_o word_n plague_n have_v something_o of_o horror_n in_o it_o and_o be_v apt_a to_o begeâ_n a_o startle_a and_o shrink_v in_o such_o especial_o as_o be_v natural_o more_o incline_v to_o fear_v the_o scripture_n never_o speak_v of_o it_o but_o always_o one_o epithet_n or_o other_o be_v give_v to_o it_o as_o the_o noâe_n of_o a_o dreadful_a judgement_n when_o moses_n set_v himself_o to_o threaten_v israel_n with_o curse_n for_o their_o disobedience_n he_o place_v this_o in_o the_o front_n deut._n 28._o 21._o the_o lord_n shall_v make_v the_o pestilence_n cleave_v unto_o thou_o until_o he_o âath_v consume_v thou_o from_o off_o the_o
