garment_n and_o therefore_o if_o it_o fall_v out_o so_o that_o they_o sit_v together_o their_o fearful_a conceit_n may_v breed_v the_o plague_n profess_v o_o sir_n be_v you_o of_o that_o mind_n that_o

preach_v no_o i_o do_v not_o but_o i_o deem_v they_o guilty_a of_o their_o own_o bane_n who_o take_v it_o with_o such_o a_o conceit_n and_o yet_o i_o think_v every_o charitable_a christian_a will_v

the_o garment_n can_v be_v infect_v and_o yet_o the_o person_n that_o wear_v it_o escape_v the_o plague_n preach_v i_o will_v show_v you_o that_o in_o a_o word_n do_v you_o not_o consider_v that_o either_o the_o infection_n may_v be_v but_o weak_a or_o the_o party_n of_o a_o strong_a and_o healthful_a constitution_n cinder_n will_v not_o set_v fuel_n on_o fire_n so_o soon_o as_o burn_a coal_n

i_o pray_v you_o to_o give_v reason_n why_o by_o only_a fear_n a_o man_n may_v be_v infect_v with_o the_o plague_n preach_v the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n will_v sustain_v his_o infirmity_n 23._o but_o a_o wound_a spirit_n who_o can_v bear_v it_o say_v solomon_n by_o spirit_n here_o be_v mean_v a_o comfortable_a heart_n which_o animate_v a_o man_n in_o all_o trouble_n but_o if_o that_o fail_v he_o

that_o be_v conversant_a with_o the_o infect_a i_o be_v peradventure_o not_o of_o so_o strong_a a_o constitution_n as_o the_o party_n to_o take_v heed_n of_o fear_n lest_o i_o be_v guilty_a of_o my_o

be_v contrary_a either_o to_o security_n 13._o and_o so_o it_o may_v be_v call_v héedfulnesse_n or_o to_o faith_n and_o so_o it_o be_v cousin_n germane_a to_o despair_n 40._o but_o hope_v that_o now_o you_o see_v our_o doctrine_n against_o unruly_a and_o uncharitable_a go_v abroad_o of_o the_o infécted_a either_o in_o person_n or_o garment_n not_o to_o be_v a_o check_n to_o piety_n and_o charity_n i_o pray_v you_o tell_v i_o what_o you_o can_v say_v for_o unnecessary_a and_o desperate_a run_v to_o the_o sick_a and_o bury_v of_o the_o plague_n profess_v what_o i_o tell_v you_o be_v it_o without_o offence_n that_o many_o marvel_n i_o will_v not_o say_v cry_v out_o that_o preacher_n who_o shall_v be_v example_n of_o love_n and_o faith_n in_o visit_v the_o sick_a according_a to_o their_o office_n 12._o do_v yet_o so_o flat_o speak_v against_o the_o express_a word_n of_o christ_n for_o do_v not_o he_o say_v 43._o that_o we_o shall_v be_v judge_v at_o the_o last_o day_n according_a to_o our_o work_n of_o charity_n and_o among_o the_o rest_n our_o visit_n or_o not_o visit_v the_o sick_a preach_v o_o neighbour_n you_o now_o lay_v on_o load_n i_o must_v therefore_o ease_v a_o little_a the_o shoulder_n of_o preacher_n who_o you_o charge_v heavy_o for_o not_o visit_v the_o sick_a of_o the_o plague_n before_o i_o can_v nimble_o encounter_v your_o main_a objection_n sure_o you_o professor_n who_o so_o urge_v this_o pretend_a duty_n be_v far_o from_o the_o love_a care_n and_o kindness_n of_o the_o israelite_n who_o will_v not_o suffer_v david_n to_o hazard_v

say_v to_o he_o that_o desire_v to_o bury_v his_o father_n 22._o follow_v thou_o i_o let_v the_o dead_a bury_v their_o dead_a if_o you_o do_v consider_v this_o well_o you_o can_v not_o but_o think_v that_o as_o paul_n say_v 17_o christ_n send_v i_o not_o to_o baptize_v but_o to_o preach_v so_o preacher_n may_v say_v christ_n have_v send_v we_o not_o to_o visit_v the_o sick_a but_o to_o preach_v and_o thereupon_o conclude_v that_o the_o less_o duty_n if_o a_o duty_n especial_o be_v dangerous_a must_v give_v place_n to_o the_o great_a and_o the_o visit_n of_o a_o few_o sick_a and_o less_o capable_a of_o instruction_n must_v give_v place_n to_o the_o teach_n of_o the_o whole_a congregation_n and_o more_o capable_a of_o doctrine_n and_o comfort_n now_o if_o they_o visit_v every_o one_o that_o be_v sick_a how_o can_v they_o attend_v unto_o read_v and_o follow_v christ_n in_o the_o most_o proper_a and_o necessary_a work_n of_o the_o ministry_n 42_o last_o i_o see_v not_o but_o herein_o i_o humble_o submit_v my_o opinion_n to_o the_o church_n that_o visit_v the_o sick_a be_v a_o proper_a duty_n of_o a_o minister_n as_o he_o be_v a_o minister_n for_o as_o none_o can_v ordain_v officer_n in_o the_o church_n but_o christ_n 19_o so_o none_o as_o i_o be_o persuade_v can_v prescribe_v duty_n to_o those_o officer_n 8._o but_o christ_n but_o i_o can_v find_v where_o christ_n prescribe_v visit_v of_o the_o sick_a as_o a_o minister_n duty_n if_o not_o christ_n why_o shall_v any_o surcharge_n minister_n and_o the_o rather_o because_o they_o be_v not_o no_o not_o the_o best_a sufficient_a for_o duty_n prescribe_v 4._o do_v not_o the_o apostle_n pronounce_v it_o a_o unmeet_a thing_n to_o be_v hinder_v from_o give_v themselves_o continual_o to_o prayer_n and_o to_o

and_o dragon_n but_o the_o former_a be_v true_a therefore_o the_o latter_a if_o then_o the_o pestilence_n be_v dangerous_a to_o one_o that_o be_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o thousand_o die_v thereof_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o by_o contagion_n as_o may_v further_o appear_v in_o that_o it_o be_v call_v noisome_a and_o in_o that_o it_o be_v say_v 7_o it_o shall_v not_o come_v near_o thou_o but_o let_v we_o try_v the_o strength_n of_o the_o former_a part_n of_o that_o huge_a argument_n lay_v down_o in_o this_o form_n many_o have_v be_v with_o the_o sick_a of_o the_o plague_n when_o they_o sweat_v etc._n etc._n &_o yet_o be_v not_o infect_v therefore_o it_o be_v not_o contagious_a certain_a priest_n say_v to_o a_o philosopher_n all_o these_o monument_n which_o you_o see_v in_o this_o temple_n be_v in_o remembrance_n of_o so_o many_o deliver_v from_o shipwreck_n by_o prayer_n to_o the_o god_n of_o this_o temple_n but_o quoth_v the_o philosopher_n can_v you_o show_v i_o how_o many_o pray_v and_o yet_o perish_v as_o the_o philosopher_n answer_n be_v strong_a against_o their_o god_n than_o the_o priest_n observation_n be_v for_o their_o god_n so_o it_o make_v much_o more_o to_o prove_v the_o plague_n to_o be_v contagious_a to_o say_v a_o hundred_o if_o not_o a_o thousand_o infect_a by_o be_v where_o the_o plague_n be_v may_v be_v bring_v for_o one_o that_o escape_v again_o if_o that_o argument_n be_v good_a than_o these_o be_v as_o good_a many_o have_v have_v the_o plague_n sore_n and_o be_v sick_a and_o yet_o die_v not_o therefore_o the_o plague_n be_v not_o in_o it_o own_o nature_n mortal_a many_o run_v upon_o the_o mouth_n of_o a_o canon_n and_o escape_v therefore_o canon_n shot_n be_v not_o murder_v profess_v we_o see_v the_o canon_n shoot_v to_o kill_v but_o we_o see_v not_o the_o plague_n to_o infect_v preach_v by_o common_a experience_n it_o be_v observe_v that_o sour_v of_o drink_n and_o other_o effect_n follow_v thunder_n whereunto_o they_o be_v

then_o shall_v we_o not_o fear_v aswell_o the_o pestilence_n that_o walk_v in_o darkness_n as_o the_o plague_n that_o destroy_v at_o noon_n day_n since_o by_o common_a experience_n it_o be_v observe_v

many_o for_o go_v among_o they_o i_o hardly_o perceive_v one_o of_o ten_o once_o look_v for_o help_v though_o they_o have_v a_o rise_n of_o the_o plague_n in_o some_o part_n of_o their_o body_n until_o they_o be_v heart_n sick_a &_o then_o often_o they_o seek_v for_o help_v too_o late_o whereas_o if_o in_o reason_n they_o will_v consider_v that_o as_o the_o plague_n may_v be_v some_o good_a time_n in_o the_o garment_n before_o it_o infect_v the_o outward_a part_n so_o it_o may_v be_v in_o the_o flesh_n a_o good_a while_n before_o it_o strike_v the_o very_a heart_n no_o doubt_n they_o will_v betimes_o prevent_v the_o worst_a through_o which_o default_n i_o be_o persuade_v hundred_o do_v perish_v daily_o but_o commend_v such_o to_o god_n gracious_a providence_n i_o pray_v you_o tell_v i_o what_o cause_n be_v give_v by_o the_o learned_a why_o so_o many_o escape_n though_o they_o be_v continual_o in_o so_o great_a danger_n of_o the_o plague_n 44._o as_o have_v be_v say_v

well_o consider_v may_v not_o a_o argument_n be_v draw_v from_o hence_o to_o prove_v even_o by_o reason_n that_o the_o plague_n be_v not_o so_o infective_a as_o faithless_a people_n conceive_v and_o therefore_o they_o need_v not_o fear_v the_o plague_n so_o extreme_o as_o they_o do_v but_o i_o will_v proceed_v to_o the_o divine_a cause_n or_o reason_n the_o chief_a whereof_o be_v this_o god_n
