thousand_o mile_n preach_v how_o now_o neighbour_n stay_v you_o there_o shall_v we_o have_v no_o conclusion_n all_o this_o be_v grant_v but_o what_o infer_v you_o hereupon_o touch_v our_o question_n profess_v trust_v i_o sir_n you_o pose_v i_o now_o i_o have_v shoot_v the_o bolt_n which_o many_o deem_v to_o be_v a_o kill_v cow_n but_o indeed_o i_o know_v not_o to_o what_o purpose_n preach_v then_o may_v you_o see_v what_o kind_n of_o reasoner_n heady_a people_n be_v even_o such_o as_o be_v blame_v by_o god_n for_o darken_n the_o counsel_n of_o god_n with_o word_n without_o knowledge_n 2._o but_o to_o use_v the_o word_n of_o paul_n 19_o if_o god_n will_v i_o will_v know_v not_o the_o word_n of_o they_o that_o be_v puff_v up_o but_o the_o power_n to_o bring_v this_o about_o understand_v that_o upon_o that_o ground_n of_o god_n providence_n you_o must_v of_o necessity_n frame_v one_o of_o these_o two_o argument_n if_o you_o will_v reason_n to_o the_o purpose_n none_o can_v die_v of_o the_o plague_n but_o such_o as_o be_v special_o appoint_v thereunto_o therefore_o the_o plague_n be_v not_o contagious_a or_o this_o none_o can_v die_v etc._n etc._n but_o such_o etc._n etc._n therefore_o we_o may_v as_o bold_o resort_v to_o they_o that_o be_v sick_a of_o the_o plague_n as_o to_o those_o that_o be_v sick_a of_o any_o other_o disease_n which_o of_o these_o conclusion_n do_v you_o like_v better_o or_o do_v you_o like_o both_o or_o will_v you_o make_v some_o other_o that_o may_v serve_v your_o turn_n better_o profess_v if_o neither_o of_o these_o will_v serve_v the_o turn_n i_o can_v imagine_v any_o other_o for_o my_o dull_a wit_n can_v not_o so_o distinct_o have_v gather_v these_o i_o see_v that_o learning_n be_v a_o good_a help_n to_o judgement_n for_o the_o very_a frame_n of_o these_o in_o this_o several_a sort_n which_o i_o never_o hear_v before_o make_v i_o stagger_v for_o the_o former_a conclusion_n seem_v now_o to_o be_v absurd_a for_o as_o i_o now_o conceive_v by_o the_o same_o reason_n the_o bloody_a sword_n in_o a_o furious_a battle_n and_o extreme_a famine_n among_o a_o multitude_n of_o miserable_a poor_a people_n may_v be_v conclude_v to_o be_v in_o their_o own_o nature_n without_o danger_n of_o death_n for_o in_o the_o same_o chapter_n of_o jeremy_n now_o so_o much_o urge_v it_o be_v as_o well_o say_v 2._o such_o as_o be_v for_o the_o sword_n to_o the_o sword_n and_o such_o as_o be_v for_o the_o famine_n to_o the_o famine_n as_o such_o as_o be_v appoint_v to_o death_n unto_o death_n as_o for_o the_o second_o conclusion_n if_o the_o plague_n be_v contagious_a i_o see_v not_o how_o it_o hold_v good_a but_o yet_o i_o pray_v you_o to_o say_v somewhat_o to_o it_o that_o i_o may_v the_o better_o satisfy_v myself_o and_o other_o as_o occasion_n shall_v serve_v preach_v certain_a anabaptiste_n of_o amsterdam_n cross_v the_o sea_n usual_o without_o any_o weapon_n be_v demand_v why_o they_o do_v so_o consider_v the_o dunkirker_n be_v then_o abroad_o they_o answer_v if_o god_n have_v determine_v that_o we_o shall_v fall_v into_o their_o hand_n we_o shall_v not_o escape_v though_o we_o have_v all_o the_o gun_n and_o weapon_n in_o the_o world_n if_o god_n have_v determine_v otherwise_o we_o shall_v escape_v though_o we_o have_v no_o weapon_n nor_o any_o show_n of_o defensive_a provision_n another_o be_v sick_a of_o the_o plague_n and_o advise_v to_o take_v some_o physic_n deny_v so_o to_o do_v use_v the_o same_o argument_n what_o think_v you_o of_o these_o conclusion_n profess_v if_o the_o only_a set_v down_o of_o your_o former_a conclusion_n do_v make_v i_o stagger_v the_o lay_n of_o these_o by_o they_o and_o that_o in_o so_o goodly_a proportion_n must_v needs_o make_v i_o stumble_v for_o now_o i_o see_v not_o but_o that_o we_o may_v as_o well_o hold_v it_o unnecessary_a to_o eat_v and_o drink_v though_o it_o be_v for_o a_o year_n together_o if_o god_n have_v determine_v that_o we_o shall_v live_v so_o long_o preach_v there_o be_v great_a difference_n in_o the_o case_n propound_v by_o i_o and_o that_o propound_v by_o you_o for_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o live_v a_o year_n without_o meat_n and_o drink_v except_o god_n work_v a_o miracle_n but_o the_o anabaptist_n may_v happy_o escape_v the_o dunkirker_n by_o not_o meeting_n with_o they_o &_o there_o may_v be_v in_o a_o man_n though_o in_o outward_a appearance_n dangerous_o sick_a of_o the_o plague_n yet_o some_o secret_a power_n of_o nature_n to_o prevail_v against_o the_o disease_n profess_v all_o this_o may_v be_v and_o yet_o because_o the_o anabaptist_n and_o sick_a man_n do_v not_o know_v that_o god_n have_v determine_v such_o a_o miss_n and_o grant_v such_o a_o power_n they_o both_o presume_v in_o my_o opinion_n as_o well_o as_o he_o that_o refuse_v meat_n and_o drink_n because_o they_o neglect_v lawful_a mean_n the_o one_o of_o defence_n the_o other_o of_o recovery_n preach_v now_o have_v you_o hit_v upon_o the_o very_a point_n for_o god_n who_o be_v only_o wise_a have_v in_o his_o counsel_n determine_v the_o mean_n as_o well_o as_o the_o event_n which_o appear_v as_o in_o the_o case_n of_o eternal_a salvation_n wherein_o we_o see_v that_o god_n call_v all_o they_o to_o faith_n who_o he_o 4._o predestinate_v to_o life_n and_o contrariwise_o he_o leave_v they_o in_o their_o reprobate_a mind_n who_o he_o have_v ordain_v to_o condemnation_n so_o in_o case_n of_o temporal_a deliverance_n for_o though_o god_n grant_v hezekiah_n recovery_n 7._o yet_o he_o prescribe_v a_o plaster_n for_o his_o sore_n and_o though_o paul_n be_v assure_v by_o a_o angel_n 31._o that_o not_o one_o in_o ship_n with_o he_o shall_v be_v lose_v yet_o if_o they_o have_v use_v any_o other_o mean_n of_o preservation_n than_o god_n have_v determine_v they_o can_v not_o be_v safe_a and_o howsoever_o christ_n can_v not_o die_v before_o his_o hour_n as_o have_v be_v say_v yet_o his_o life_n be_v preserve_v till_o that_o hour_n by_o shun_v danger_n 30._o on_o the_o other_o side_n as_o god_n have_v determine_v to_o give_v sihon_n &_o his_o land_n unto_o the_o israelite_n so_o he_o make_v his_o heart_n obstinate_a to_o refuse_v peace_n the_o only_a mean_a of_o his_o preservation_n profess_v i_o perceive_v your_o meaning_n namely_o from_o all_o these_o instance_n to_o conclude_v that_o as_o god_n have_v determine_v to_o infect_v any_o with_o the_o plague_n unto_o death_n or_o otherwise_o so_o have_v he_o determine_v by_o what_o mean_v they_o shall_v be_v infect_v i_o grant_v all_o this_o but_o do_v you_o think_v that_o take_a infection_n one_o from_o another_o be_v the_o only_a mean_a preach_v no_o for_o there_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v a_o first_o that_o be_v infect_v &_o we_o see_v the_o godly_a aswell_o as_o the_o wicked_a and_o not_o only_o young_a and_o poor_a folk_n but_o ancient_a and_o wealthy_a person_n yea_o such_o as_o dwell_v in_o a_o good_a air_n and_o avoid_v infection_n with_o all_o care_n to_o have_v the_o plague_n as_o well_o as_o other_o for_o otherwise_o how_o be_v it_o a_o calamity_n or_o a_o judgement_n and_o yet_o many_o of_o they_o i_o doubt_v not_o be_v infect_v by_o be_v in_o company_n of_o some_o other_o infect_v in_o person_n or_o garment_n though_o they_o do_v not_o perceive_v it_o many_o day_n after_o for_o cause_n give_v before_o 49._o but_o to_o answer_v your_o question_n more_o full_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o what_o i_o think_v further_o to_o wit_n as_o god_n himself_o bring_v some_o to_o their_o destruction_n by_o work_v upon_o and_o by_o the_o spiritual_a corruption_n he_o find_v in_o their_o soul_n as_o pharaoh_n and_o sihon_n 15._o but_o many_o more_o by_o outward_a mean_n as_o our_o first_o parent_n and_o rehoboam_n so_o he_o himself_o infect_v some_o by_o turn_v the_o natural_a or_o accidental_a corruption_n he_o find_v in_o their_o body_n into_o the_o plague_n but_o according_a to_o his_o providence_n he_o visit_v many_o more_o by_o the_o mean_a of_o take_v infection_n one_o from_o another_o but_o howsoever_o god_n strike_v who_o he_o will_v unmodiat_o yet_o the_o plague_n be_v contagious_a in_o it_o own_o nature_n it_o can_v be_v deny_v but_o that_o one_o man_n may_v be_v infect_v by_o another_o except_o god_n providence_n be_v to_o the_o contrary_a now_o because_o that_o can_v be_v know_v but_o by_o the_o event_n therefore_o as_o the_o anabaptist_n sick_a and_o hungry_a man_n presume_v in_o your_o opinion_n when_o they_o neglect_v the_o mean_n of_o their_o defence_n recovery_n and_o feed_n so_o he_o that_o do_v not_o keep_v himself_o from_o the_o danger_n of_o infection_n except_o he_o have_v a_o necessary_a call_n do_v by_o such_o neglect_v his_o own_o safety_n presume_v on_o god_n providence_n for_o to_o confirm_v you_o in_o

your_o opinion_n it_o be_v write_v 29_o that_o secret_a thing_n belong_v to_o god_n and_o reveil_v thing_n belong_v to_o us._n so_o that_o i_o may_v conclude_v that_o since_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n touch_v life_n or_o death_n be_v secret_a before_o the_o event_n and_o it_o be_v reveal_v that_o the_o plague_n be_v contagious_a therefore_o it_o follow_v that_o howsoever_o it_o be_v true_a that_o none_o can_v die_v of_o the_o plague_n but_o such_o as_o be_v special_o appoint_v thereunto_o yet_o there_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v that_o bold_a and_o free_a resort_n to_o they_o that_o be_v sick_a of_o the_o plague_n as_o to_o those_o that_o be_v sick_a of_o any_o other_o disease_n to_o confirm_v this_o point_n further_o thus_o i_o argue_v a_o wanton_a or_o unnecessary_a put_n of_o god_n to_o the_o manifestation_n of_o his_o power_n or_o special_a providence_n be_v a_o tempt_a of_o the_o almighty_a as_o may_v appear_v by_o these_o place_n psal_n 78._o 18._o 19_o esa_n 7._o 12._o math._n 4._o 6._o 7._o but_o to_o run_v into_o danger_n of_o the_o plague_n without_o necessary_a cause_n as_o they_o do_v who_o resort_n as_o bold_o and_o free_o to_o they_o that_o be_v sick_a of_o the_o plague_n as_o to_o those_o that_o be_v sick_a of_o any_o other_o disease_n be_v wanton_o and_o unnecessary_o to_o put_v god_n to_o manifest_v his_o power_n and_o special_a providence_n in_o preserve_v they_o from_o the_o plague_n therefore_o to_o run_v into_o danger_n of_o the_o plague_n without_o necessary_a cause_n as_o they_o do_v who_o resort_n as_o bold_o etc._n etc._n be_v a_o tempt_a of_o the_o almighty_a the_o assumption_n or_o second_o proposition_n i_o prove_v by_o the_o four_o of_o matthew_n verse_n 6._o 7._o where_o satan_n will_v have_v persuade_v christ_n to_o cast_v himself_o down_o from_o a_o pinnacle_n of_o the_o temple_n upon_o this_o presumption_n that_o the_o angel_n have_v charge_n to_o preserve_v he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n where_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o christ_n do_v not_o take_v knowledge_n of_o satan_n his_o abuse_v the_o psalm_n 91._o by_o he_o allege_v in_o put_v in_o these_o word_n at_o any_o time_n for_o these_o in_o all_o thy_o way_n but_o allege_v another_o scripture_n forbid_v we_o to_o tempt_v the_o lord_n our_o god_n whereby_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o to_o presume_v upon_o god_n protection_n when_o we_o be_v not_o in_o our_o way_n or_o to_o neglect_v mean_n as_o the_o stair_n of_o the_o pinnacle_n be_v be_v to_o tempt_v the_o almighty_a and_o that_o without_o necessary_a cause_n to_o run_v into_o danger_n as_o satan_n will_v have_v have_v christ_n to_o have_v do_v be_v to_o be_v out_o of_o our_o way_n therefore_o to_o run_v into_o danger_n of_o the_o plague_n without_o a_o necessary_a cause_n be_v to_o tempt_v the_o almighty_a thus_o you_o see_v that_o from_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n you_o can_v conclude_v that_o either_o the_o plague_n be_v not_o contagious_a or_o we_o need_v not_o shun_v it_o more_o than_o other_o disease_n indeed_o upon_o that_o ground_n he_o that_o have_v a_o necessary_a cause_n of_o resort_n where_o the_o plague_n be_v may_v thus_o argue_v it_o be_v the_o reveal_v will_n of_o god_n that_o i_o be_o in_o my_o way_n and_o therefore_o have_v a_o promise_n of_o preservation_n if_o it_o shall_v be_v to_o god_n glory_n and_o my_o good_a and_o it_o be_v not_o reveal_v that_o i_o shall_v be_v infect_v therefore_o i_o may_v proceed_v with_o hope_n and_o comfort_n i_o say_v more_o from_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n manifest_v the_o beléever_n ought_v in_o every_o affliction_n to_o conclude_v thus_o howsoever_o i_o use_v mean_n as_o david_n do_v to_o prevent_v this_o affliction_n 23._o yet_o perceive_v by_o the_o event_n that_o god_n have_v decree_v it_o i_o will_v by_o his_o grace_n take_v it_o patient_o as_o david_n also_o do_v thus_o for_o your_o satisfaction_n i_o have_v say_v that_o which_o i_o think_v sufficient_a to_o the_o second_o conclusion_n but_o yet_o if_o you_o have_v any_o thing_n to_o reply_v or_o any_o other_o argument_n to_o object_n against_o the_o infection_n of_o the_o plague_n i_o will_v not_o have_v you_o in_o any_o case_n to_o hold_v it_o in_o prof._n if_o i_o stagger_v and_o stumble_v before_o how_o be_v it_o likely_a that_o i_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o reencounter_v now_o in_o this_o skirmish_n i_o be_o therefore_o to_o seek_v supply_n from_o another_o objection_n which_o if_o you_o overthrow_n i_o must_v yield_v for_o i_o remember_v no_o more_o but_o before_o i_o assault_v you_o with_o that_o perceive_v by_o your_o discourse_n that_o shun_v the_o plague_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o preservation_n as_o be_v within_o the_o danger_n thereof_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o infection_n i_o pray_v your_o judgement_n touch_v fly_a into_o the_o country_n for_o fear_n of_o infection_n which_o some_o justify_v 3._o by_o these_o word_n of_o solomon_n the_o prudent_a man_n see_v the_o plague_n and_o hide_v himself_o other_o say_v this_o place_n be_v misconstrue_v yea_o some_o preach_v against_o fly_v into_o the_o country_n because_o of_o the_o plague_n preach_v if_o you_o have_v say_v a_o cause_n in_o stead_n of_o the_o cause_n you_o have_v more_o right_o report_v my_o mind_n for_o i_o have_v deliver_v sundry_a cause_n or_o mean_n of_o infection_n and_o preservation_n among_o the_o rest_n i_o think_v go_v and_o abide_v in_o the_o country_n to_o be_v a_o excellent_a mean_n in_o itself_o of_o preservation_n but_o that_o this_o mean_v may_v be_v sanctify_v to_o they_o that_o use_v it_o let_v it_o be_v consider_v who_o may_v take_v the_o benefit_n thereof_o and_o how_o it_o be_v to_o be_v use_v i_o think_v that_o they_o who_o residence_n be_v not_o necessary_a may_v take_v the_o benefit_n of_o go_v into_o the_o country_n as_o well_o as_o a_o man_n who_o have_v a_o large_a house_n may_v remove_v from_o one_o side_n infect_v to_o another_o not_o infect_v but_o let_v we_o further_o examine_v this_o point_n by_o consider_v those_o 4._o sort_n of_o people_n who_o you_o tax_v for_o run_v away_o 41._o viz._n magistrate_n minister_n physician_n and_o rich_a man_n as_o for_o magistrate_n and_o minister_n i_o think_v they_o shall_v be_v resident_a 44._o the_o one_o for_o reason_n i_o give_v before_o the_o other_o for_o reason_n no_o less_o evident_a for_o when_o will_v they_o offer_v to_o god_n the_o supplication_n of_o his_o people_n for_o help_n and_o health_n if_o not_o now_o when_o their_o misery_n be_v so_o great_a when_o will_v they_o comfort_v the_o afflict_a if_o not_o now_o when_o there_o be_v so_o many_o woeful_a husband_n and_o wife_n parent_n and_o child_n friend_n and_o kinsfolk_n when_o will_v they_o prevail_v against_o sin_n with_o the_o word_n of_o exhortation_n if_o not_o now_o when_o man_n be_v humble_v with_o the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n and_o when_o will_v they_o do_v good_a by_o prepare_v man_n to_o patience_n and_o teach_v they_o to_o make_v good_a use_n of_o affliction_n if_o not_o now_o when_o every_o hour_n they_o look_v to_o come_v to_o the_o trial_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o wisdom_n in_o christ_n jesus_n i_o will_v say_v no_o more_o since_o christ_n have_v say_v enough_o when_o he_o set_v it_o down_o 12._o as_o a_o property_n of_o a_o hireling_n to_o leave_v the_o sheep_n when_o he_o see_v the_o wolf_n come_v as_o for_o physician_n i_o only_o propound_v this_o question_n whether_o they_o be_v bind_v in_o conscience_n to_o be_v resident_a in_o regard_n of_o their_o profession_n and_o ability_n to_o do_v good_a or_o they_o may_v use_v their_o liberty_n to_o shift_v for_o themselves_o &_o as_o they_o think_v for_o their_o life_n in_o regard_n they_o be_v no_o public_a person_n and_o live_v not_o by_o a_o common_a stipend_n but_o by_o what_o they_o can_v get_v but_o howsoever_o this_o question_n be_v answer_v i_o dare_v say_v thus_o much_o that_o a_o physician_n who_o may_v do_v much_o more_o good_a than_o a_o keeper_n have_v as_o great_a interest_n in_o god_n promise_n and_o providence_n there_o remain_v rich_a man_n to_o be_v consider_v under_o which_o name_n i_o understand_v also_o such_o as_o be_v able_a to_o provide_v for_o themselves_o abroad_o i_o think_v they_o may_v go_v and_o abide_v in_o the_o country_n since_o the_o good_a they_o can_v do_v as_o they_o be_v rich_a man_n be_v to_o reléeve_v the_o sick_a and_o needy_a which_o they_o may_v do_v well_o enough_o without_o their_o residence_n if_o they_o be_v so_o well_o mind_v to_o which_o purpose_n i_o speak_v somewhat_o before_o 25._o but_o though_o they_o may_v be_v none_o resident_a yet_o they_o must_v not_o use_v their_o liberty_n 16._o as_o a_o cloak_n of_o their_o naughtiness_n and_o therefore_o let_v they_o consider_v how_o or_o with_o what_o caution_n
