plague_n and_o sickness_n o_o lord_n i_o be_o hold_v in_o thy_o fetter_n oh_o thou_o which_o have_v bind_v i_o lose_v i_o and_o if_o it_o tend_v unto_o thy_o glory_n and_o my_o good_a restore_v my_o

can_v choose_v but_o be_v a_o grief_n unto_o a_o christian_a to_o see_v how_o many_o murmur_n in_o this_o visitation_n some_o fear_v the_o plague_n in_o their_o person_n other_o in_o their_o purse_n some_o be_v loath_a to_o lose_v their_o good_n other_o to_o leave_v the_o world_n not_o fear_v to_o say_v with_o despair_a cain_n their_o punishment_n be_v great_a than_o they_o can_v bear_v and_o thus_o do_v they_o undervalue_v god_n mercy_n in_o his_o justice_n in_o who_o vial_n be_v not_o only_a wine_n but_o also_o oil_n have_v he_o deliver_v we_o up_o to_o famine_n it_o will_v have_v be_v a_o burden_n far_o more_o grievous_a and_o have_v he_o deliver_v we_o up_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o our_o enemy_n as_o he_o have_v do_v some_o neighbour_a nation_n it_o have_v be_v likely_a that_o our_o shall_v not_o only_o have_v be_v banish_v from_o our_o country_n but_o that_o all_o hope_n shall_v have_v be_v banish_v from_o we_o how_o much_o better_a be_v it_o then_o as_o david_n choose_v to_o fall_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n than_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o man_n and_o to_o be_v visit_v with_o this_o plague_n than_o to_o be_v plague_v with_o our_o enemy_n the_o lord_n give_v we_o

meditation_n 2._o it_o be_v true_a indeed_o that_o sin_n be_v the_o first_o cause_n of_o this_o sickness_n but_o as_o god_n do_v not_o the_o work_v of_o mercy_n so_o he_o do_v not_o the_o work_v of_o justice_n without_o a_o mean_n our_o sin_n be_v the_o parent_n of_o this_o pestilence_n but_o it_o be_v a_o question_n how_o god_n bring_v it_o in_o there_o be_v no_o man_n can_v absolute_o determine_v but_o many_o may_v conjecture_v and_o i_o fear_v i_o it_o be_v the_o want_n of_o charity_n and_o the_o neglect_n of_o the_o poor_a in_o this_o city_n which_o partly_o cause_v this_o infection_n for_o how_o can_v it_o be_v otherwise_o but_o that_o where_o multitude_n be_v pester_v together_o in_o a_o little_a room_n and_o in_o it_o have_v but_o little_a comfort_n as_o no_o rag_n to_o cover_v their_o nakedness_n no_o linen_n to_o shift_v they_o from_o filthiness_n it_o can_v choose_v but_o cause_v they_o noysomeness_n and_o by_o consequence_n infection_n if_o then_o the_o rich_a man_n desire_v to_o leave_v to_o be_v miserable_a let_v they_o learn_v to_o be_v merciful_a and_o free_a the_o city_n from_o the_o multitude_n of_o poor_a meditation_n 3._o it_o be_v a_o strange_a thing_n to_o see_v the_o difference_n of_o man_n and_o to_o consider_v how_o the_o seed_n of_o andam_fw-la be_v compose_v of_o the_o same_o matter_n shall_v so_o differ_v in_o manner_n for_o here_o you_o may_v see_v one_o so_o timorous_a of_o sickness_n that_o he_o dare_v not_o go_v to_o church_n for_o fear_v of_o infection_n be_v so_o full_a of_o base_a cowardice_n that_o he_o be_v fearful_a to_o gather_v a_o rose_n lest_o he_o shall_v prick_v his_o finger_n neglect_v his_o soul_n welfare_n for_o fear_v of_o his_o body_n sickness_n notwithstanding_o he_o can_v trudge_v to_o westminster_n about_o quarrel_n and_o contention_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a side_n another_o so_o audacious_a and_o presumptuous_a that_o he_o seem_v to_o challenge_v the_o pestilence_n and_o seek_v it_o at_o play_n search_v it_o from_o one_o tavern_n to_o another_o as_o if_o he_o dare_v god_n judgement_n to_o encounter_v with_o he_o both_o of_o which_o be_v extreme_a folly_n we_o must_v part_v viz._n from_o our_o frail_a life_n i_o will_v therefore_o resolve_v not_o so_o much_o to_o fear_v the_o evil_a of_o sickness_n as_o to_o commit_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n neither_o so_o much_o sin_n as_o to_o seek_v out_o sickness_n the_o one_o be_v a_o sin_n against_o my_o soul_n to_o deprive_v it_o of_o the_o food_n which_o be_v offer_v and_o tantalus_n like_a to_o starve_v it_o under_o
