man_n of_o sense_n can_v think_v they_o can_v buy_v clothes_n to_o keep_v their_o body_n from_o perish_v while_o they_o serve_v their_o king_n and_o country_n and_o bread_n to_o keep_v their_o

and_o therefore_o those_o clergyman_n that_o be_v acquaint_v with_o those_o that_o be_v in_o authority_n may_v do_v well_o to_o show_v they_o whether_o there_o be_v such_o a_o sin_n now_o in_o this_o

than_o it_o be_v the_o nation_n be_v duty_n to_o relieve_v they_o by_o justice_n and_o mercy_n and_o to_o punish_v the_o extortioner_n and_o if_o ever_o these_o nation_n will_v pretend_v to_o

any_o true_a reformation_n in_o england_n there_o must_v be_v a_o reformation_n of_o the_o minister_n as_o well_o as_o of_o the_o people_n and_o without_o there_o be_v a_o reformation_n the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n and_o th●_n wh●le_a word_n of_o god_n from_o genesis_n to_o the_o revelation_n will_v show_v we_o that_o we_o must_v expect_v ruine_v judgement_n

one_o thing_n i_o will_v observe_v that_o the_o great_a ruin_n of_o the_o jew_n begin_v after_o they_o have_v be_v under_o one_o of_o the_o best_a of_o king_n as_o josiah_n be_v for_o though_o he_o be_v so_o good_a the_o nation_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v so_o most_o dreadful_o overrun_v with_o wickedness_n under_o their_o other_o former_a wicked_a king_n that_o both_o prince_n elder_n priest_n

know_v how_o dreadful_a a_o thing_n it_o be_v to_o sin_n against_o that_o light_n and_o if_o they_o can_v not_o escape_v the_o judgement_n of_o god_n that_o sin_v against_o that_o light_n how_o much_o more_o sad_o will_v the_o sin_n of_o england_n call_v for_o judgement_n if_o we_o do_v go_v on_o in_o all_o manner_n of_o abomination_n both_o against_o the_o light_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o

sad_a deadness_n of_o trade_n in_o the_o city_n and_o nation_n and_o our_o scarcity_n of_o money_n seem_v to_o i_o as_o if_o god_n be_v threaten_v such_o a_o judgement_n to_o we_o as_o to_o israel_n of_o old_a to_o be_v as_o a_o moth_n to_o israel_n and_o as_o rottenness_n now_o a_o moth_n consume_v secret_o and_o rottenness_n go_v before_o break_v and_o i_o do_v not_o know_v that_o i_o ever_o

for_o i_o to_o write_v the_o multitude_n of_o the_o misery_n of_o they_o and_o their_o family_n since_o but_o i_o may_v say_v as_o the_o prophet_n of_o old_a concern_v the_o destruction_n of_o
