causer_n the_o two_o first_o of_o these_o be_v cause_v by_o the_o people_n the_o other_o two_o by_o king_n in_o the_o two_o first_o i_o observe_v that_o the_o scripture_n make_v mention_v only_o of_o the_o number_n of_o the_o people_n without_o particularise_v what_o they_o be_v that_o die_v whether_o man_n woman_n or_o child_n or_o all_o of_o they_o in_o the_o two_o latter_a it_o make_v mention_v of_o man_n only_o first_o in_o king_n david_n time_n of_o threescore_o and_o ten_o thousand_o man_n and_o in_o senacherib_n camp_n of_o one_o hundred_o fourscore_o and_o five_o thousand_o man_n and_o i_o believe_v that_o in_o the_o two_o last_v none_o but_o man_n die_v for_o king_n david_n sin_n be_v number_v the_o man_n the_o woman_n be_v not_o number_v and_o in_o senacherib_n camp_n the_o scripture_n say_v plain_o that_o those_o that_o die_v be_v mighty_a man_n of_o valour_n leader_n and_o captain_n in_o the_o camp_n of_o the_o king_n of_o assyria_n 2_o chron._n 32.21_o and_o i_o believe_v that_o few_o or_o no_o woman_n follow_v the_o camp_n so_o far_o and_o although_o frequent_o in_o scripture_n where_o man_n be_v speak_v of_o woman_n be_v include_v yet_o i_o presume_v that_o in_o both_o these_o they_o be_v whole_o exempt_a from_o hence_o i_o observe_v that_o all_o the_o plague_n wherewith_o it_o have_v please_v god_n to_o visit_v this_o nation_n be_v draw_v down_o upon_o it_o by_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n and_o not_o by_o any_o particular_a act_n or_o crime_n of_o any_o the_o king_n thereof_o for_o i_o can_v find_v nor_o do_v i_o believe_v that_o any_o one_o have_v read_v of_o a_o plague_n within_o this_o nation_n which_o spare_v either_o sex_n or_o age._n now_o to_o look_v home_o to_o ourselves_o let_v we_o consider_v for_o which_o of_o these_o four_o cause_n or_o whether_o for_o all_o of_o they_o god_n be_v please_v to_o afflict_v we_o with_o the_o present_a rage_a pestilence_n although_o i_o be_o confident_a this_o nation_n be_v sufficient_o guilty_a of_o all_o of_o they_o yet_o i_o be_o of_o opinion_n that_o more_o particular_o this_o judgement_n be_v lay_v on_o we_o for_o the_o first_o of_o they_o the_o sin_n of_o rebellion_n which_o extend_v much_o far_o than_o that_o of_o the_o israelite_n against_o moses_n and_o anton_n for_o they_o only_o murmur_v they_o touch_v not_o the_o life_n of_o either_o of_o they_o and_o yet_o god_n plague_v they_o for_o it_o our_o rebellion_n extend_v to_o the_o height_n of_o rebellion_n even_o to_o the_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o the_o best_a of_o king_n his_o late_a majesty_n of_o ever_o bless_a memory_n who_o blood_n doubtless_o do_v incessant_o cry_v to_o the_o lord_n for_o vengeance_n for_o if_o the_o lord_n punish_v the_o sin_n of_o saul_n a_o king_n so_o severe_o for_o shed_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o gibeonite_n who_o be_v his_o vassal_n and_o slave_n hewer_n of_o wood_n and_o drawer_n of_o water_n that_o neither_o the_o life_n of_o himself_o and_o his_o three_o son_n who_o fall_v all_o in_o one_o battle_n in_o one_o day_n nor_o the_o three_o year_n of_o famine_n in_o the_o land_n can_v appease_v god_n wrath_n therefore_o but_o that_o the_o blood_n of_o seven_o more_o of_o saul_n son_n must_v do_v it_o may_v not_o then_o this_o nation_n just_o expect_v god_n great_a judgement_n to_o fall_v on_o the_o people_n of_o it_o for_o shed_v the_o blood_n of_o their_o lawful_a sovereign_n for_o their_o sin_n herein_o be_v as_o much_o great_a than_o saul_n by_o how_o much_o a_o lawful_a and_o good_a king_n over_o three_o so_o fair_a large_a and_o populous_a kingdom_n be_v great_a than_o a_o vassal_n or_o slave_n and_o because_o murder_n of_o all_o sin_n be_v the_o most_o heinous_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o almighty_a but_o especial_o the_o murder_v of_o king_n and_o noble_n therefore_o god_n punish_v it_o with_o one_o of_o his_o severe_a punishment_n i_o mean_v with_o the_o plague_n for_o god_n himself_o account_v three_o day_n pestilence_n equal_a to_o three_o month_n fly_v before_o the_o enemy_n or_o three_o year_n of_o famine_n some_o may_v object_n and_o say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o vain_a and_o ridiculous_a thing_n to_o imagine_v this_o present_a plague_n to_o be_v inflict_v upon_o we_o for_o a_o thing_n so_o long_o pass_v i_o answer_v in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o psalmist_n psal_n 9.12_o when_o god_n make_v inquisition_n for_o blood_n he_o remember_v they_o when_o god_n will_v make_v inquisition_n for_o blood_n there_o be_v none_o can_v tell_v but_o when_o he_o do_v than_o he_o will_v not_o fail_v to_o remember_v they_o that_o shed_v it_o this_o when_o have_v not_o at_o any_o time_n since_o the_o death_n of_o our_o late_a martyr_a sovereign_n come_v so_o near_o as_o now_o and_o therefore_o i_o can_v choose_v but_o take_v particular_a notice_n of_o it_o for_o god_n do_v not_o always_o make_v inquisition_n for_o blood_n so_o soon_o as_o it_o be_v spill_v but_o many_o time_n a_o great_a while_n after_o as_o may_v appear_v by_o the_o gibeonite_n for_o saul_n slay_v they_o in_o his_o life_n time_n in_o favour_n of_o the_o man_n of_o israel_n and_o judah_n and_o yet_o god_n send_v a_o famine_n of_o three_o year_n in_o the_o time_n of_o king_n david_n after_o saul_n death_n for_o that_o a_o full_a satisfaction_n for_o their_o blood_n be_v not_o then_o make_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o saul_n family_n and_o when_o david_n ask_v they_o what_o he_o shall_v do_v for_o they_o to_o make_v a_o atonement_n to_o the_o lord_n they_o though_o slave_n ask_v neither_o silver_n nor_o gold_n nor_o liberty_n but_o seven_o of_o saul_n son_n who_o they_o hang_v to_o cease_v the_o famine_n thus_o much_o then_o for_o supernatural_a cause_n i_o shall_v now_o proceed_v to_o give_v you_o some_o cause_n natural_a the_o first_o and_o great_a cause_n natural_a be_v the_o infection_n of_o the_o air_n and_o the_o rule_n and_o reign_v of_o the_o planet_n over_o man_n body_n from_o which_o proceed_v the_o contagion_n of_o converse_n and_o i_o conceive_v that_o the_o contagion_n of_o the_o air_n do_v arise_v from_o the_o unseasonableness_n of_o the_o weather_n for_o the_o weather_n have_v be_v very_o seldom_o since_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o plague_n suitable_a to_o the_o season_n of_o the_o year_n but_o the_o air_n have_v be_v close_o and_o obnubulate_v insomuch_o that_o the_o sun_n have_v not_o have_v the_o

disorder_v by_o immoderate_a eat_n or_o drink_v by_o heat_n or_o cold_n etc._n etc._n and_o it_o be_v think_v by_o some_o that_o thing_n eat_v long_o since_o may_v in_o some_o measure_n be_v introductory_n to_o it_o for_o some_o physician_n be_v of_o opinion_n that_o the_o unwholesome_a meat_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o great_a rot_n among_o sheep_n eat_v by_o the_o poor_a last_o year_n
