Easte shall they come to and fro to seeke the word of the Lord and shall not finde it But because they receiue not the loue of the truth that they might be saued and therefore God shall send them strong Illusions that they might beléeue lies so that the dayes will come when ye shall desire to sée one of the dayes of the sonne of man and ye shall not sée it I passe ouer many other plauges that Mars threatneth vnto them because they will not know the time of their visitation CHAP. 3. Concerning the Sicknes and diseases of this yeare THe Eygptians had a manner vse ni their banquets to carry about an Image of death and to say to euery man that was at the Banquet Look● vppon this eate drinke and be merry such an one shalt thou be when thou dyest And this they did no doubt to put men in remembrance of temperance and of death least they vndiscreetly through excesse of eating and Drinking should happen to dye before their age for so doth God vse to punish such sinne wherefore if we dyet and temper our selues through the influence of the Sunne we shall haue few diseases except Mars bring some other thing to passe that we misknowe not our selues as for such as follow Mercurius liuing night and day in ●oyot and vncleanenes these I say shall through the Sunne haue great Diseases in all the members of their bodies in the Lungs Liuer Hands and Féete yea and perils of their ●oules I passe ouer the pouerty that drunkards and ryotous persons shall haue Keepe no company saith Salomon with drunkards nor with gluttons for the drunkard and the glutton shal be poore and the sleeper shal be cloathed with Ragges and in the same Chap. he saith To whom is woe to whom is sorrow to whom is strife to whom is murmuring to whom are woundes without cause and to whome is the rednesse of the eyes euen to them that tarry long at the Wine to them that goe and seeke mixt Wine and therefore he subioyneth this counsell looke not thou vppon the wine when it is red and when it sheweth his coulour in the Cuppe or goeth downe pleasantly in the end therefore saith he it will bite like a Serpent and hurt like a Cockatrice and thou shalt be 〈◊〉 one that sleepeth in the midst of the sea and as he that sleepeth in the toppe of the Mas●e They haue stricken me shalt thou say but I was not sicke they haue beaten me but I wot not when I awoke Therefore will I seeke it still and though drunkenesse make them more insensible then beastes yet can they not refraine let thē remember our Sauiour Christs warning which he giueth in these words of the latter day take heed saith he to your selues least at any time your harts be oppressed with surfetting and drunkennes and cares of this life least that day come vpon you vnawares There is doubtlesse a maruelous sore punishment to come vpon the whole world of the wicked sword warres hunger not only spiritual as I said before but temporall which plagues haue bin aforetime but are not yet all past I néede not to rehearse the pestilence and those great plagues that God will send to the reformation of as many as wil be warned as for the common 〈◊〉 of the vngodly there shall such a fearefulnes of death come vppon them that they shall not tell where to turne them nor how to escape death O how bitter and gréeuous shall the remembrance of death be this yeare to such as séeke rest and consolation in transitory substance of this world to such as know of no aduersitie but haue good dayes liue in voluptuousnesse and to such Epicures as say Thou hast much goods layed vp for many yeares liue at ease eate drinke and take thy pastime but God shall say O foole this night will they fetch thy soule from thee then whose shall these things be which thou hast prouided But oh death how acceptable and welcome shalt thou be vnto such as are in aduersitie in their last age or in despaire whosoeuer thou be therefore that wouldest escape the sicknesse of this yeare beware that thy body be not ouer-laden with ouer much eating or with drunkennes for excesse of meats bringeth sicknesse 〈◊〉 gluttony commeth at the last to an vnmeasurable heate and Chollericke diseases By surfet haue many perished 〈◊〉 he that dieteth himselfe prolongeth 〈◊〉 life as for vnsatiable eaters they ●●all not onely sléepe vnquietly this yeare but shall haue Ache and payne of the body Concerning the spirituall disease and sicknesse that shall raigne this yeare as it hath done before Paule an auncient and true Astronomer saith plainely that we be all sinners if we say that we haue no sinne we deceiue our selues and the truth is not in vs. This is now the spirituall disease that shall commonly raigne this yeare but especially in them that féele least of it and will not acknowledge it if we acknowledge our sinnes hee is faithfull and iust to forgiue vs our sinnes and to clense vs from all vngodlinesse for the Sunne hath such vertue that whosoeuer can sée his disease and will complayne of it it shall clense them and make them whole Yea Paule sayeth playnely that Christ Iesus came into the world to saue sinners And Saint Iohn giueth vs a good comfort and saieth if any man sinne we haue an aduocate with the Father euen Iesus Christ the iust and he is the reconciliation for our sinnes and not for ours onely but also for the sinne● of the whole world Whosoeuer therefore hath this disease as there is no man without it let him do wisely let him proue and examine himselfe all times and goe to Phisicke before he be sore sicke and aboue all things let him beware of such false Phisitians fayned Surgeons as heale the hurt of the people with swéete words and say peace peace where there is none And as a true Astronomer reporteth with faire spéech and flattering desceiue the harts of the simple and all for their bellye 's sake such serue not the Lord Iesus such false Phisitions lay wrong plasters to mens sores speake the meaning of their owne harts but not out of the mouth of the Lord. But goe thou boldly vnto him which onely healeth the contrite in heart and byndeth vp their wounds he shall not cast thée away But if thou come vnto him he shall refresh thée he shall ease thée for his yoake saith he is easie his burden light if thou be sicke goe vnto him for he is the right Phisitian for such as are diseased if thou be thirstie come vnto him he hath to giue thee a well of water springing vp vnto euerlasting life If thou be hungry for righteousnes sake and thirst blessed shalt thou be for thou shalt
