as_o in_o other_o indifferent_a thing_n so_o also_o may_v a_o man_n use_v go_v aside_o both_o well_o and_o ill_o and_o so_o far_o be_o i_o from_o persuade_v the_o same_o to_o every_o man_n without_o exception_n that_o on_o the_o contrary_n i_o confess_v that_o they_o offend_v much_o less_o who_o when_o they_o may_v otherwise_o with_o a_o good_a conscience_n withdraw_v themselves_o have_v rather_o yet_o tarry_v and_o to_o venture_v and_o endanger_v their_o life_n rather_o than_o that_o they_o may_v seem_v to_o have_v forsake_v their_o neighbour_n or_o family_n i_o confess_v i_o say_v that_o these_o offend_v much_o less_o than_o those_o who_o be_v carry_v away_o with_o too_o much_o distrust_n or_o with_o unmeasurable_a fear_n of_o death_n forget_v and_o neglect_v all_o duty_n of_o humanity_n have_v this_o only_a before_o their_o eye_n away_o quick_o a_o far_o off_o long_o ere_o you_o return_v again_o man_n sure_o most_o worthy_a to_o be_v thrust_v out_o of_o all_o company_n of_o man_n the_o bond_n whereof_o they_o break_v all_o to_o piece_n now_o what_o in_o this_o point_n may_v be_v observe_v i_o think_v may_v this_o way_n be_v determine_v first_o of_o all_o i_o think_v it_o be_v to_o be_v proiud_v that_o every_o man_n do_v summon_v himself_o unto_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o god_n unto_o the_o plague_n as_o the_o come_n of_o news_n of_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n condemn_v himself_o that_o he_o may_v be_v acquit_v by_o he_o and_o that_o withal_o he_o weigh_v with_o himself_o that_o he_o be_v call_v to_o stand_v forth_o and_o plead_v his_o own_o cause_n and_o that_o this_o rod_n can_v be_v avoid_v by_o change_n of_o place_n but_o of_o manner_n and_o that_o if_o he_o must_v die_v that_o this_o be_v decree_v for_o the_o good_a of_o they_o which_o die_v forasmuch_o as_o they_o be_v bless_v which_o die_v in_o the_o lord_n another_o point_n be_v that_o no_o man_n either_o go_v aside_o or_o tarry_v with_o a_o doubtful_a conscience_n but_o when_o as_o he_o shall_v have_v learn_v out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n what_o his_o duty_n be_v that_o commend_v himself_o unto_o god_n he_o continue_v constant_o therein_o and_o although_o that_o in_o so_o great_a variety_n of_o circumstance_n rule_n for_o every_o singular_a thing_n can_v be_v set_v down_o yet_o be_v it_o no_o hard_a matter_n to_o give_v certain_a general_n precept_n agreeable_a unto_o the_o word_n of_o god_n by_o the_o which_o as_o by_o a_o certain_a rule_n singular_a case_n may_v afterward_o as_o they_o say_v be_v try_v let_v they_o therefore_o which_o think_v to_o tarry_v know_v that_o it_o be_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n thou_o shall_v not_o kill_v and_o that_o therefore_o neither_o their_o own_o nor_o the_o life_n of_o any_o belong_v or_o depend_v on_o they_o be_v rash_o to_o be_v put_v in_o danger_n of_o deadly_a infection_n let_v they_o on_o the_o other_o side_n which_o think_v to_o go_v away_o know_v that_o no_o man_n ought_v to_o have_v so_o great_a regard_n either_o of_o himself_o or_o of_o his_o family_n that_o he_o forget_v what_o one_o owe_v unto_o his_o country_n and_o fellow_n citizen_n to_o be_v brief_a what_o he_o owe_v unto_o another_o whether_o they_o be_v bind_v by_o the_o common_a bond_n of_o humanity_n and_o society_n of_o by_o any_o other_o kind_n of_o friendship_n for_o love_n seek_v not_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v she_o own_o wherefore_o i_o confess_v that_o i_o can_v see_v by_o what_o reason_n at_o all_o any_o man_n be_v forbid_v to_o depart_v which_o either_o by_o reason_n of_o age_n or_o of_o sickness_n past_a hope_n of_o recovery_n can_v help_v other_o and_o if_o they_o tarry_v they_o may_v therefore_o seem_v only_a to_o be_v stay_v that_o they_o may_v die_v to_o the_o great_a loss_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n for_o as_o their_o cruelty_n can_v never_o enough_o be_v blame_v which_o thrust_v they_o out_o of_o their_o city_n especial_o if_o they_o be_v of_o the_o poor●●_n sort_n so_o both_o the_o pious_a nature_n of_o parent_n in_o time_n provide_v for_o the_o preservation_n and_o life_n of_o they_o without_o prejudice_n or_o hurt_v to_o any_o man_n seem_v unto_o i_o to_o be_v great_o commend_v and_o also_o the_o providence_n of_o the_o magistrate_n be_v much_o to_o be_v praise_v where_o their_o care_n shall_v be_v extend_v without_o damage_n to_o the_o common-welfare_n to_o see_v that_o those_o weak_a one_o as_o seed-plot_n of_o citizen_n be_v well_o look_v unto_o and_o here_o come_v in_o the_o way_n that_o general_a bond_n wherewith_o man_n be_v especial_o bind_v unto_o man_n and_o that_o without_o take_v away_o of_o humanity_n itself_o can_v be_v break_v there_o be_v also_o another_o bond_n bind_v every_o citizen_n unto_o his_o country_n and_o city_n but_o both_o these_o bond_n i_o affirm_v to_o be_v natural_a and_o universal_a that_o every_o one_o must_v have_v regard_n of_o his_o estate_n and_o call_v for_o some_o serve_v in_o public_a office_n either_o civil_a or_o the_o ministry_n the_o rest_n be_v private_a person_n and_o the_o bond_n of_o private_a person_n between_o themselves_o be_v manifold_a the_o which_o nature_n itself_o knit_v and_o christian_a godliness_n bind_v the_o which_o unless_o they_o be_v discern_v asunder_o that_o every_o man_n may_v know_v what_o his_o duty_n be_v in_o all_o thing_n it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o confusion_n shall_v bear_v the_o sway_n in_o all_o thing_n under_o a_o show_n of_o order_n therefore_o let_v man_n help_v man_n citizen_z citizen_z that_o need_v his_o help_n according_a to_o his_o power_n and_o let_v he_o not_o think_v of_o go_v aside_o by_o which_o it_o may_v just_o appear_v likely_a unto_o he_o to_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o by_o this_o mean_v some_o body_n shall_v be_v ill_o look_v unto_o much_o more_o that_o through_o contempt_n of_o any_o man_n or_o of_o a_o overthwart_a fear_n of_o death_n he_o depart_v not_o any_o whit_n from_o the_o duty_n of_o humanity_n but_o when_o as_o without_o the_o neglect_n of_o his_o duty_n and_o public_a offence_n he_o may_v be_v careful_a both_o for_o himself_o and_o he_o by_o go_v aside_o i_o see_v no_o cause_n why_o he_o may_v not_o only_o

the_o duty_n of_o a_o christian_a magistrate_n to_o provide_v that_o those_o thing_n which_o either_o breed_n or_o nourish_v the_o plague_n so_o far_o as_o they_o may_v be_v take_v away_o and_o that_o
