A02058	An alarum to England sounding the most fearefull and terrible example of Gods vengeance, that euer was inflicted in this world vpon mankind for sinne: seruing generally as a warning for all people to eschew sinne, lest they partake of the like vengeance. By Robert Gray, preacher of the Word of God.	Gray, Robert, 16th/17th cent.	1609 (1609)	STC 12203; ESTC S120400	50,215	146

king_n josias_n so_o much_o lament_v by_o jeremy_n tot_fw-la and_o commend_v by_o the_o testimony_n of_o god_n spirit_n in_o the_o scripture_n what_o say_v you_o to_o many_o good_a man_n some_o drown_v at_o sea_n sudden_o some_o kill_v in_o fight_n some_o go_v well_o to_o bed_n and_o find_v dead_a in_o their_o bed_n do_v you_o affirm_v that_o sudden_a death_n to_o all_o these_o be_v a_o spiritual_a judgement_n sure_o concern_v josias_n i_o answer_v that_o he_o die_v not_o a_o sudden_a death_n for_o he_o be_v wound_v at_o megiddo_n 35.23.24_o and_o after_o he_o be_v wound_v he_o complain_v to_o his_o servant_n that_o he_o be_v very_o sick_a whereupon_o his_o servant_n remove_v he_o out_o of_o his_o own_o chariot_n into_o a_o other_o and_o afterward_o carry_v he_o to_o jerusalem_n and_o there_o he_o die_v can_v josias_n be_v say_v to_o die_v of_o a_o sudden_a death_n they_o do_v but_o flatter_v the_o world_n which_o countenance_n the_o sudden_a death_n of_o their_o friend_n with_o the_o example_n of_o josias_n for_o where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o be_v take_v in_o there_o net_n 4.20_o the_o prophet_n do_v not_o mean_a by_o net_n the_o suddenness_n of_o his_o destruction_n but_o rather_o the_o cunning_a device_n and_o stratagem_n which_o his_o enemy_n use_v to_o work_v his_o overthrow_n and_o so_o be_v net_n take_v job._n 18.8_o and_o in_o diverse_a other_o place_n beside_o and_o as_o for_o such_o as_o perish_v at_o sea_n they_o can_v be_v say_v to_o die_v sudden_o for_o when_o a_o man_n set_v his_o foot_n into_o a_o ship_n he_o well_o know_v that_o there_o be_v but_o half_a a_o foot_n breadth_n at_o the_o most_o between_o he_o &_o death_n so_o that_o a_o man_n entrance_n into_o a_o ship_n to_o go_v to_o sea_n be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o entrance_n into_o some_o dangerous_a sickness_n and_o common_o there_o be_v some_o storm_n before_o a_o shipwreck_n which_o be_v a_o good_a premonition_n of_o ensue_a danger_n &_o when_o a_o man_n be_v under_o water_n he_o be_v not_o present_o deprive_v of_o life_n but_o there_o be_v some_o reluctation_n of_o nature_n in_o which_o time_n of_o reluctation_n there_o may_v be_v many_o a_o deep_a

the_o chance_n of_o war_n be_v uncertain_a &_o therefore_o when_o a_o man_n go_v into_o the_o field_n to_o fight_v he_o shall_v make_v account_n that_o he_o lie_v he_o down_o upon_o his_o sickbed_n the_o drum_n and_o trumpet_n be_v to_o he_o as_o so_o many_o bell_n that_o sound_v forth_o his_o doleful_a knell_n the_o arrow_n the_o pike_n the_o shot_n of_o all_o sort_n be_v messenger_n of_o

be_v so_o deprive_v of_o life_n that_o there_o be_v no_o reluctation_n of_o nature_n to_o be_v perceive_v and_o what_o be_v we_o to_o judge_v of_o such_o sure_o concern_v such_o we_o be_v not_o only_o to_o consider_v the_o present_a condition_n of_o their_o death_n but_o also_o to_o look_v back_o to_o their_o life_n former_o pass_v and_o if_o we_o find_v they_o to_o have_v live_v in_o all_o good_a conscience_n before_o god_n and_o man_n and_o to_o have_v be_v busy_v in_o some_o holy_a or_o charitable_a action_n at_o the_o hour_n of_o their_o death_n these_o man_n doubtless_o die_v in_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n &_o sudden_a death_n be_v but_o a_o temporal_a judgement_n unto_o they_o val._n &_o it_o be_v against_o the_o rule_n of_o charity_n &_o piety_n to_o judge_v otherwise_o of_o they_o for_o of_o what_o kind_n of_o death_n soever_o a_o just_a man_n die_v it_o shall_v be_v well_o with_o he_o &_o his_o soul_n shall_v be_v at_o rest_n but_o if_o a_o man_n have_v all_o his_o life_n time_n live_v wicked_o &_o unconscionable_o and_o be_v also_o take_v by_o death_n in_o some_o ungodly_a &_o uncharitable_a action_n out_o of_o all_o question_n sudden_a death_n be_v a_o spiritual_a
