to his perpetual Honour these three viz.

There is another large Treatise published by Mr. Robert Younge Entituled The Drunkard's Character Also a Sermon preached long since by Doctor Robert Harris called The Drunkard's Cup out of Isaiah 5. from the 11. to the 18. verse And a Sermon published many years since Preached at Pauls Cross by Doctor Abraham Gibson Entituled The Lands mourning for vain Swearing out of these words Because of Oaths the Land mourns And now the Land may mourn not only for vain Swearing but for vain Drinking of Healths and Drunkenness After His Majesties Restauration there was I remember a great Feast at which time there was a Health drank for His Majesty and when it came to the turn of an able learned grave Minister there present he utterly disliked and refused it Answering That he would pray for His Majesties Heath And if all that are Well-wishers to his Majesties Health would obey his Proclamation against that Vice in leaving off drinking either of the Kings Health or any others leave of swearing and prophaning the Sabbath and would constantly earnestly and heartily pray for His Majesties Health according as the Apostle St. Paul exhorts Timothy 1 Tim. 2.3 That Supplication and Prayer be made for Kings and all that are in Authority that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty I say then we should be in hopes to see better Times and better Trading The generality cry out of their want of Trading and of the Sins of the Rulers but our chief Work and Duty is to look more narrowly at home and to find out the Plague of our own Hearts Who smites upon his Thigh who saith what have I done We are apt to forget the late dreadful Judgments of God as that of the Destroying-Sword the sad destroying Pestilence when from the 20th of December 1664 to the 15th of December 1665. there died of all Diseases 97396 and of the Plague 68596 and in one week which I find to be the greatest of all was in September 19. 1665 there died of the Plague in London and Liberties 7165 of all Diseases 8297 that one week Can London ever forget those sad and lamentable consuming Flames that brake forth the Second of September 1666 The ruinous heaps on 373 Acres within and 63 Acres without the old Line the ghastly walls of 89 Parish-Churches and stately Houses and Halls with the Royal Exchange and as it was computed Thirteen thousand and two hundred Houses with a vast deal of Goods Houshold-stuff and rich Commodities and I think Book-sellers may easily remember the many Ware-houses of good Books of all sorts then turned to Ashes at St. Faiths Church and in other places about the City There was a Book published by Mr. Thomas Brooks Dedicated to Sir William Turner Lord Mayor who deserved much Love and Honour for being so great a Furtherer of building the City and Royal Exchange that lay long in Ruins Entituled London's Lamentations being a serious Discourse of the late fiery Dispensation that turned our Renowned City into a ruinous Heap In the second part or application of that Book Page 36. is shewed That the burning of London was a National Judgment and that God in smiting London did smite England round And what Sins bring desolating Judgments upon Persons and Places Intemperance and Drunkenness is one Sin and that we are to see the hand of the Lord in that dreadful Fire and to take heed of those Sins that bring the fiery Rod with the several Lessons and Duties we are to learn by it We may easily see that the Lord will not suffer us to be forgetful of his great Judgments by the several fresh Remembrances he hath given us by sad Fires in divers places since in and near the City Not long after the dreadful Fire there was a Merchants great house almost finished in Mincing Lane burned and quite defaced after that two great Fires brake forth in Southwark at several times and places Another at the Savoy which did much harm Another at the corner of St. Bartholomew Lane a Herald Painter's House Mr. Francis Nowers himself his Child and Nurse was burned Another in White-Chappel and several persons burned there Another sad Fire was in or near Thames street which burned to the ground a great Sugar-Baker's House with many thousand pounds worth of Sugar belonging to several Partners it began September the Second the Lords-day 1671. And now last Whit-Sunday morning at St. Katherines near Tower-hill brake forth a very grievous lamentable Fire which as it is Reported consumed above one hundred Dwelling-houses and divers Ships and some people were burned and killed by it After that another great Fire that consumed about a dozen Houses and part of Sir Paul Pindar's house without Bishopsgate in June 1672. A few dayys after brake forth another Fire which burned several Houses in Crutched Friers One at Camomile-street At the Swan at Holborn-Bridge A Brick house in Grub-street We may do well to take that Counsel of our Saviour to the impotent man that he had cured and had been at the Pool of Bothsaida who had an Infirmity thirty eight years John 5.14 Christ bid him go and sin no more least a worse thing befal him it was old Mr. Wheatlyes Text of Banbury after it was burned Read the 26. of Leviticus how greatly the Lord threatned the people of Israel if they were Disobedient to him He threatens great Judgments and to make their Cities wast and the Land desolate and in the verses 18 21 24 28. it is four times threatned That he will punish them seven times more for their Iniquities God hath shot Three Arrows against us and how easily can he shoot a Fourth sore Arrow that of the Famine unless we turn from our Sins by true
