11.12_o the_o godly_a preacher_n commend_v unto_o we_o in_o these_o word_n my_o son_n fail_v not_o in_o thy_o sickness_n but_o pray_v unto_o the_o lord_n and_o he_o will_v make_v thou_o whole_a leave_v off_o from_o sin_n and_o order_v thy_o hand_n aright_o etc._n etc._n and_o cleanse_v thy_o heart_n from_o all_o wickedness_n etc._n etc._n then_o give_v place_n to_o the_o physician_n for_o the_o lord_n have_v create_v he_o let_v he_o not_o go_v from_o thou_o for_o thou_o have_v need_n of_o he_o the_o hour_n may_v come_v that_o their_o enterprise_n may_v have_v good_a success_n for_o he_o also_o shall_v pray_v unto_o the_o lord_n that_o he_o will_v prosper_v that_o which_o be_v give_v for_o the_o prolong_n of_o life_n whereas_o some_o object_n that_o in_o the_o pestilence_n natural_a remedy_n of_o physic_n can_v benefit_v we_o because_o the_o cause_n here_o can_v be_v see_v or_o find_v in_o nature_n i_o answer_v with_o m.b._n if_o there_o come_v into_o the_o pestilence_n no_o natural_a cause_n than_o these_o who_o the_o plague_n have_v infect_v can_v doubtless_o so_o much_o be_v ease_v much_o less_o be_v heal_v by_o natural_a remedy_n but_o this_o second_o to_o be_v very_o false_a experience_n and_o common_a sense_n do_v daily_o tell_v us._n wherefore_o i_o affirm_v that_o natural_a remedy_n must_v not_o be_v neglect_v again_o whereas_o other_o do_v object_n that_o physic_n here_o often_o be_v see_v to_o have_v but_o small_a good_a success_n i_o answer_v that_o we_o must_v not_o say_v of_o natural_a preseruative_n that_o because_o they_o do_v not_o benefit_v one_o or_o two_o or_o three_o therefore_o they_o can_v help_v any_o at_o all_o it_o be_v a_o bad_a conclusion_n for_o consider_v that_o god_n do_v govern_v natural_a cause_n and_o their_o effect_n as_o it_o please_v he_o and_o bless_v they_o to_o who_o he_o will_v where_o and_o when_o he_o will_n and_o hence_o it_o come_v that_o the_o infection_n touch_v not_o every_o one_o that_o be_v in_o danger_n of_o it_o neither_o be_v it_o deadly_a to_o every_o one_o that_o be_v infect_v other_o yet_o more_o fond_o dispute_v against_o natural_a remedy_n in_o this_o sickness_n and_o they_o say_v that_o god_n have_v here_o a_o more_o special_a providence_n and_o he_o will_v smite_v who_o he_o will_v to_o death_n and_o therefore_o all_o remedy_n be_v to_o small_a purpose_n these_o man_n again_o want_v judgement_n i_o answer_v that_o the_o lord_n no_o doubt_n when_o he_o send_v a_o famine_n into_o egypt_n and_o the_o region_n thereabouts_o he_o determine_v who_o shall_v die_v in_o that_o scarcity_n yet_o for_o all_o this_o cease_v not_o joseph_n with_o most_o wise_a counsel_n to_o provide_v for_o the_o egyptian_n and_o jacob_n for_o his_o family_n the_o like_a do_v paul_n in_o the_o sea_n with_o the_o mariner_n when_o he_o have_v receive_v a_o answer_n he_o shall_v come_v to_o rome_n safe_o and_o christ_n know_v his_o time_n and_o yet_o he_o go_v aside_o often_o from_o his_o enemy_n hand_n till_o his_o hour_n come_v use_v the_o ordinary_a mean_n for_o his_o preservation_n and_o that_o no_o man_n may_v stand_v stiff_o in_o his_o own_o rash_a judgement_n quid_fw-la

some_o man_n indeed_o do_v as_o foolish_a man_n do_v in_o a_o common_a fire_n which_o will_v not_o come_v and_o help_v the_o city_n but_o let_v the_o fire_n alone_o that_o the_o whole_a city_n may_v
