god_n shall_v say_v to_o england_n as_o he_o do_v to_o israel_n that_o he_o will_v be_v as_o a_o lion_n to_o we_o to_o tear_v and_o rend_v we_o and_o go_v from_o we_o that_o will_v be_v dreadful_a

but_o i_o will_v only_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n of_o those_o dreadful_a object_n of_o misery_n the_o protestant_n of_o france_n who_o help_v to_o support_v the_o french_a king_n to_o the_o throne_n when_o he_o be_v in_o danger_n to_o be_v put_v by_o but_o this_o be_v a_o diversion_n and_o now_o as_o to_o what_o i_o be_v to_o speak_v of_o concern_v god_n see_v with_o what_o zeal_n may_v i_o not_o say_v rage_n and_o fury_n the_o law_n be_v make_v and_o execute_v in_o the_o last_o age_n against_o his_o solemn_a worship_n and_o service_n and_o if_o there_o be_v neither_o zeal_n nor_o courage_n

and_o infect_v this_o nation_n with_o their_o accurse_a sin_n and_o that_o the_o s●ns_n of_o this_o day_n be_v accurse_v by_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n and_o that_o the_o church_n have_v cry_v out_o above_o 140_o year_n to_o have_v they_o that_o be_v guilty_a of_o notorious_a sin_n to_o be_v punish_v open_o that_o other_o may_v take_v warning_n by_o they_o as_o any_o that_o will_v read_v the_o preamble_n to_o the_o commination_n in_o the_o common-prayer_n which_o they_o carry_v to_o church_n may_v find_v and_o that_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n they_o order_v the_o whole_a

their_o landmark_n or_o be_v vnmerciful_a or_o pervert_v the_o judgement_n of_o the_o poor_a the_o fatherless_a and_o widow_n and_o several_a other_o sin_n i_o wish_v some_o of_o those_o who_o manage_v our_o brave_a courageous_a loyal_a but_o beggar_v and_o ruin_a seaman_n of_o england_n be_v not_o guilty_a of_o earn_v abundance_n of_o these_o curse_n when_o they_o put_v by_o the_o poor_a

but_o if_o they_o live_v 100_o or_o 200_o mile_n from_o london_n they_o must_v come_v or_o send_v and_o prove_v and_o have_v certificate_n and_o i_o know_v not_o what_o wait_v to_o get_v that_o which_o god_n angel_n and_o man_n know_v be_v a_o dreadful_a sin_n and_o shame_n and_o plague_n to_o keep_v they_o from_o it_o and_o it_o may_v be_v this_o help_v the_o poor_a miserable_a wretch_n to_o wait_v 150_o or_o 200_o on_o a_o day_n sometime_o at_o the_o admiralty_n for_o relief_n but_o this_o by_o the_o way_n it_o may_v be_v some_o will_v think_v i_o say_v too_o much_o of_o it_o but_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v i_o may_v say_v if_o god_n do_v not_o avenge_v this_o by_o some_o judgement_n on_o the_o actor_n on_o this_o nation_n that_o god_n have_v not_o speak_v by_o i_o but_o now_o to_o return_v to_o the_o proposal_n of_o severe_a law_n against_o the_o debauchery_n of_o the_o age_n the_o last_o age_n do_v use_v imprisonment_n and_o banishment_n for_o the_o punish_n of_o the_o worshipper_n of_o god_n and_o if_o this_o age_n do_v not_o imprison_v and_o banish_v a_o multitude_n of_o the_o whore_n and_o villain_n of_o this_o age_n for_o serve_v the_o devil_n and_o pox_v and_o debauch_v and_o ruine_v the_o youth_n of_o the_o nation_n it_o will_v be_v to_o be_v admire_v at_o see_v that_o indeed_o if_o debauchery_n and_o lewdness_n be_v not_o punish_v and_o prevent_v but_o that_o it_o increase_v as_o much_o more_o in_o the_o next_o age_n as_o it_o do_v the_o last_o the_o nation_n will_v be_v a_o very_a pest-house_n of_o the_o plague_n sore_n of_o sin_n and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v the_o sound_n will_v have_v much_o to_o do_v to_o support_v themselves_o and_o family_n against_o cheat_n and_o villainy_n and_o curse_a wretch_n who_o be_v likely_a to_o poison_v their_o child_n servant_n friend_n or_o relation_n that_o we_o be_v like_a to_o be_v as_o israel_n of_o old_a before_o their_o destruction_n who_o the_o prophet_n say_v be_v full_a of_o wound_n and_o bruise_n and_o putrify_a sore_n and_o it_o will_v be_v well_o if_o some_o of_o the_o inferior_a magistrate_n be_v not_o in_o time_n corrupt_v that_o will_v be_v sad_a i_o remember_v a_o story_n of_o a_o honest_a country_n parson_n that_o be_v preach_v to_o a_o corporation_n in_o the_o country_n on_o the_o choice_n of_o a_o mayor_n and_o he_o say_v magistrate_n be_v call_v go_n now_o say_v he_o as_o they_o be_v call_v god_n you_o shall_v take_v care_n you_o do_v not_o choose_v a_o drunken_a god_n or_o a_o whore_v unclean_a god_n now_o he_o may_v have_v take_v the_o cemmon-prayer_n book_n and_o say_v for_o all_o his_o be_v a_o god_n if_o that_o he_o be_v such_o a_o one_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o england_n be_v bind_v to_o curse_v he_o out_o the_o year_n therefore_o for_o that_o thing_n and_o some_o other_o reason_n i_o will_v beg_v that_o that_o the_o desire_n of_o the_o common_a prayer_n that_o have_v stand_v there_o about_o 140_o year_n may_v now_o be_v in_o some_o

come_v to_o that_o again_o i_o will_v humble_o beg_v that_o the_o ship_n for_o time_n to_o come_v may_v be_v pay_v in_o london_n where_o the_o poor_a seaman_n have_v be_v force_v to_o be_v assist_v and_o support_v all_o this_o war_n when_o they_o have_v no_o money_n nor_o clothes_n to_o fit_v they_o for_o the_o sea_n or_o when_o twenty_o or_o thirty_o thousand_o of_o they_o be_v take_v captive_n into_o france_n then_o they_o come_v to_o the_o city_n of_o london_n for_o supply_v and_o as_o the_o city_n have_v always_o be_v ready_a to_o assist_v the_o government_n with_o money_n and_o the_o seaman_n with_o necessary_n and_o their_o perish_a family_n with_o bread_n for_o several_a year_n while_o they_o earn_v their_o money_n and_o be_v not_o pay_v and_o that_o now_o therefore_o they_o may_v be_v pay_v in_o london_n where_o they_o may_v buy_v their_o thing_n at_o the_o best_a hand_n and_o have_v opportunity_n to_o return_v their_o money_n to_o any_o part_n of_o england_n to_o their_o family_n and_o the_o king_n need_v not_o be_v at_o extraordinary_a charge_n to_o send_v money_n and_o clerk_n and_o commissioner_n 40_o or_o 60_o mile_n to_o pay_v they_o in_o a_o small_a town_n or_o two_o but_o the_o king_n may_v save_v that_o charge_n and_o much_o more_o to_o pay_v they_o in_o london_n in_o this_o method_n follow_v suppose_v

estate_n of_o every_o master_n of_o a_o ship_n that_o shall_v dare_v to_o bring_v any_o of_o they_o back_o again_o and_o for_o the_o punishment_n of_o the_o man_n offender_n no_o doubt_n but_o there_o may_v be_v way_n find_v out_o to_o make_v they_o example_n and_o if_o they_o do_v not_o reform_v send_v they_o away_o also_o for_o if_o it_o be_v a_o dreadful_a thing_n for_o a_o gentleman_n or_o other_o to_o have_v their_o son_n murder_v how_o much_o more_o dreadful_a must_v it_o be_v to_o have_v body_n and_o soul_n also_o murder_v by_o those_o day_n and_o nightwalker_n who_o like_o their_o

they_o to_o wickedness_n as_o their_o wickedness_n do_v unto_o the_o gallow_n but_o in_o all_o christian_a likelihood_n the_o judgement_n of_o god_n will_v teach_v these_o nation_n by_o some_o

that_o have_v be_v say_v by_o i_o or_o i_o shall_v say_v and_o shall_v come_v to_o another_o reason_n why_o the_o poor_a ruin_a seaman_n shall_v be_v pay_v with_o all_o possible_a speed_n and_o that_o

quite_o and_o again_o eighteen_o i_o will_v appeal_v to_o all_o the_o reverend_a bishop_n if_o the_o sin_n of_o england_n if_o they_o let_v the_o seaman_n or_o their_o family_n to_o perish_v for_o
