Chambering and wantonnesse will be their associate Rom. 13.13 Lasciuiousnesse Lusts riotings and banquetings are ioyned by the Apostle 1 Peter 4.3 And will be seldome seuered by Apostataes Doe wee not see by ordinary experience the lasciuions steale to maintaine drunkennesse when drunkennesse was delighted in only for the desire of vncleannes So a Luxuriae ad praesins voluptatem deliniens futuram non simt cogita epaupertatem Aug. doctr Christ reiking in this riotousnes that they neuer wreake that woe which shall be vnto them which rise vp earely to follow strōg drink continue vntil they be enflamed Isal 5.11 Whereby it comes to passe that Hell opens her mouth wide and they in multitudes descend into it whilest they so lie weltering in their wickednes that they neuer consider the curse which shal fall vpon him who giues his neighbour strong drinke and puts his bottle to him and makes him drinke also that he may looke on his nakednesse Habak 2.15.16 How hee shall be filled with shame in steade of glory and himselfe drinke also till his foreskinne be vncouered how the cup of the Lordes right hand shall bee turned vnto him and shamefull shewing shall bee his honour But b Psal 50.22 oh would they would consider this that thus forget God least hee take them away in a Time when there is none to deliuer them Would I say they would consider with Saint Augustine that Quicunque ad bibendum pronus fuerit velin Conuiuio suo alios suos adiurauit pro se pro ipsis in Die Iudicij reus erit Whosoeuer is proue himselfe or prouoketh others to drinking shal answere both for his own and their offence at the day of iudgement which might teach them to take heed vnto themselues that their harts may not at any time bee ouercharged with surfetting drunkennes so that fearefull day of the Lord or their death come vpon thē vnawares Lu. 21.34.35 for as a snare shal it com vpon all such inhabiters of the earth yea with all the snares punishments which are due vnto Adultery that issues from this sinne of drunkennesse Which is the next obiect of our obseruation What punishments are due to offenders in it The punishments Wherein to omitte the particular personall paines of the Body which God inflicteth according to his own pleasure answerable oftentimes to the quality of the Constitution or a Wisd 11.15.16 correspondent to the forme of the offence when Occultam culpam sequitur aperta percussio because these are not alwayes apparently incident to all Offenders And those of which Antiquitie durst aueare that Quatuor his poenis punietur quisquis Adulter Aut erit hic pauper aut hic subita morietur Aut aliquod subito franget de corpore membrum Aut cadet in famam qua debet carcere trudi That euery Adulterer shall bee ouertaken with one of these foure extremities 1. Eyther he shall be poore and begge his bread yea and seeke it out of desolate places 2. Or else hee shall die suddenly and bee vnexpectedly cut off in the day that he thinkes not of it 3. Or else hee shall haue his bones shattered and broken a sunder in his security euen as a mā breakes and heweth wood vpon the earth so that he shall liue so miserably as hee shall seeke death and not finde it That body being the greatest griefe and burden vnto him which before hee pampered to followe the delightes and lustes of the flesh 4. Or else hee shall fall into such reproach and infamy that hee shall bee deseruedly cast into prison for his Impiety To omit I say these Wee will inferre as ineuitable That as the Lepreians carried those which were de prehended for the Fact three dayes bound through-the City and afterwardes despised them during their life time So the Apostle appointed amongst Christians that if there were any fornicator amongst them hee should bee bound with the chaines of Excommunication and published through the Synagogues That they should haue no commerce nor company with him 1.

So in this latter age all Adulterers and vncleane persons are lyable to the Lake that burnes with fire and brimstone which is the second death Apoc. 21.8 Where Pro breui voluptate perpetua poena For a moment of pleasure they shall suffer many millions of paine as Saint Bede sayth yea and that which is if any thing can bee yet more fearefull not onely them selues but euen their posterity which are the issue of such vnlawfull seede yea and the goods which are gotten by such vnlawfull meanes shall all bee consumed and vtterly rooted out one moneth shall deuoure them their strange Children and all their portions Hosea 5.7 For the multiplying broode of the vngodly shall not thrine nor take deepe rooting from Bastard shppes nor lay any fast foundation for though they flourish in branches for a time yet standing not fast they shall bee shaken with the VVinde and through the force of the wind they shal be rooted out The vnperfect branches shall bee broken off their fruit vnprofitable not ripe to eate yea meet for nothing For children begotten of vnlawfull beds are witnesses of wickednesse against their Parents in theyr Tryall Wisd 4.3.4.5.6 For howsoeuer to some this seeme so sweete a sinne as that they will not leaue it till they dye Eccles 23.17 yet as you may reade and it is well worth the reading to this purpose in the same Chapter to the 27. verse The Whoremonger shall bee taken in a time when hee suspecteth not and punished in the streetes And the wife that leaues her husband and bringeth in hyre by another shall bee brought out into the Congregation that Inquisition may bee made of her Children who shall take no roote And shee shall leaue her memory to bee cursed and her reproach shall not be blotted out Who would not therefore feare this fatall fault and affrighted take vp Saint Hieromes exclamation against this sinne O lgnis infernalis Luxuria Cuius materia Gula Cuius flamma superbia Cuius Scintillae praua colloquia cuius fumus infamia cuius cinis immunditia cuius finis Gehenna O thou infernall fire of Lust whose fuell is full feeding whose flame is proud flourishing whose sparckles are ribald speaking whose fume is Infamie whose ashes vncleannesse Whose Vrne is hell and whose extinguishing eternall burnings whose kindling occasionates such a Counter-Plea to mans Pardon that the Almighty thus exaggerates his offences How shall I pardon thee for this Thy children haue forsaken mee and sworne by those that are no Gods and when I fedde them to the full by troupes they haunt Harlots Houses And so I descend to the first aggrauation which is Their Impudency
