A53112 The complaint of English subjects delivered in two parts. First part, is the complaint, of the poor, middle, and meanest sorts of subjects, concerning their bodily assistance. Second part, is the true Christians complaint, against vice, and wickedness, for the good of their soul's health. Also, werein is set forth, the late prodigious growth, of atheism, errors, and vice: with a call to repentance. As also, how needful it is, in these times, for every one of us, first of all, to look into our own hearts, and endeavour to amend what is their amiss. And lastly, a brief discourse, concerning our late unfruitful, and cold summers: as also, what is thought to be the real causes of it, by way of opposition, to the opinion of astrologers. By Richard Newnam of Tiverton in Devonshire. Newnam, Richard. 1700 (1700) Wing N935; ESTC R218651 71,890 130

deliver_v themselves_o from_o the_o power_n of_o the_o flame_n and_o thus_o by_o the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n you_o may_v see_v what_o a_o vain_a thing_n astrology_n be_v for_o all_o the_o prophet_n of_o the_o lord_n exclaim_v against_o it_o and_o now_o i_o say_v upon_o the_o whole_a of_o this_o my_o discourse_n concern_v astrology_n or_o astrologer_n both_o from_o reason_n and_o scripture_n it_o do_v plain_o appear_v to_o i_o that_o the_o whole_a art_n of_o astrology_n be_v fallible_a and_o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o vain_a and_o foolish_a thing_n in_o any_o person_n whatsoever_o to_o put_v any_o trust_n or_o confidence_n in_o any_o of_o their_o prediction_n or_o in_o the_o prediction_n of_o any_o other_o man_n that_o be_v professor_n of_o any_o other_o suchlike_a vain_a science_n and_o so_o for_o the_o present_a i_o take_v my_o leave_n of_o you_o astrologer_n until_o it_o come_v in_o my_o way_n to_o mention_v your_o name_n again_o and_o now_o by_o the_o course_n of_o argument_n i_o think_v it_o come_v again_o in_o my_o way_n to_o speak_v something_o more_o concern_v our_o late_a unfruitful_a year_n and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v say_v far_o as_o follow_v both_o from_o reason_n and_o scripture_n it_o do_v appear_v to_o i_o that_o our_o late_a long_a winter_n cold_a spring_n cold_a summer_n wet_a harvest_n and_o unseasonable_a sow_v time_n which_o have_v be_v of_o late_a year_n be_v not_o whole_o from_o the_o natural_a cause_n of_o the_o heavenly_a body_n as_o they_o be_v from_o the_o creation_n first_o ordain_v in_o their_o course_n but_o that_o it_o be_v from_o the_o immediate_a hand_n of_o god_n not_z but_o that_o i_o will_v allow_v that_o the_o celestial_a body_n do_v bear_v rule_n and_o govern_v over_o all_o our_o terrestrial_a body_n and_o that_o their_o several_a influence_n many_o way_n do_v either_o afflict_v or_o comfort_v we_o while_o we_o be_v here_o on_o the_o earth_n as_o may_v be_v daily_o weekly_n monthly_a and_o yearly_o see_v in_o and_o by_o the_o revolution_n of_o that_o most_o glorious_a planet_n the_o sun_n which_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v may_v be_v the_o centre_n and_o there_o place_v because_o it_o may_v be_v the_o better_a able_a and_o more_o fit_a to_o distribute_v and_o send_v abroad_o his_o comfortable_a beam_n for_o we_o find_v by_o his_o warm_a influence_n that_o all_o creature_n here_o on_o earth_n both_o rational_a sensative_a and_o vegetable_a be_v comfort_v and_o cherish_v as_o soon_o as_o it_o approach_v towards_o we_o and_o so_o on_o the_o contrary_a we_o see_v and_o find_v that_o for_o want_v of_o the_o warm_a influence_n of_o the_o sun_n all_o compound_a material_a body_n whatsoever_o that_o have_v in_o they_o life_n and_o be_v subject_a to_o alteration_n do_v pine_n and_o droop_v when_o it_o withdraw_v his_o comfortable_a beam_n from_o we_o again_o i_o do_v not_o say_v but_o that_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o other_o heavenly_a body_n have_v their_o share_n in_o the_o bestow_n of_o their_o several_a influence_n on_o all_o such_o earthly_a body_n as_o aforesaid_a one_o way_n or_o other_o for_o i_o believe_v god_n might_n make_v they_o for_o that_o use_n as_o well_o as_o for_o sign_n and_o for_o season_n and_o for_o day_n and_o year_n but_o the_o most_o secret_a use_n of_o they_o be_v only_a know_v to_o god_n himself_o and_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o any_o man_n to_o reach_v to_o the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o such_o thing_n as_o astrologer_n pretend_v to_o know_v and_o therefore_o i_o say_v again_o it_o be_v idle_a and_o foolish_a for_o any_o one_o to_o put_v trust_n in_o astrologer_n prediction_n for_o it_o be_v only_o god_n that_o at_o first_o create_v all_o those_o heavenly_a body_n and_o it_o be_v only_o he_o himself_o that_o govern_v over_o they_o and_o rule_v they_o in_o their_o several_a motion_n how_o and_o which_o way_n he_o please_v and_o he_o alter_v all_o their_o several_a influence_n when_o he_o please_v and_o how_o he_o please_v and_o that_o to_o and_o for_o what_o use_v or_o purpose_n he_o please_v as_o we_o may_v see_v it_o make_v manifest_a in_o his_o most_o holy_a word_n in_o several_a place_n and_o by_o several_a precedent_n and_o the_o first_o that_o i_o shall_v quote_v you_o to_o this_o purpose_n shall_v be_v that_o of_o joshua_n in_o who_o book_n i_o find_v that_o the_o gibeonite_n do_v by_o a_o subtle_a way_n obtain_v their_o peace_n with_o joshua_n who_o by_o his_o league_n then_o promise_v that_o the_o gibeonite_n shall_v live_v and_o also_o therein_o i_o find_v that_o the_o prince_n of_o the_o congregation_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n swear_v unto_o the_o gibeonite_n also_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v destroy_v and_o more_o i_o find_v that_o after_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n understand_v by_o what_o a_o undermine_a way_n they_o have_v obtain_v their_o peace_n then_o they_o be_v in_o great_a wrath_n with_o the_o gibeonite_n and_o the_o child_n of_o the_o congregation_n of_o israel_n then_o murmur_v against_o their_o prince_n because_o they_o have_v peace_n with_o the_o gibeonite_n and_o yet_o nevertheless_o notwithstanding_o that_o peace_n i_o find_v that_o the_o congregation_n of_o israel_n will_v have_v destroy_v the_o gibionite_n have_v not_o the_o prince_n of_o their_o congregation_n tell_v they_o that_o they_o may_v not_o touch_v the_o gibeonite_n because_o they_o the_o prince_n have_v swear_v unto_o they_o the_o gibeonite_n that_o they_o shall_v live_v as_o you_o may_v read_v it_o at_o large_a in_o the_o 9th_o chapter_n of_o the_o book_n of_o joshua_n and_o from_o thence_o i_o observe_v this_o also_o that_o their_o be_v a_o most_o sacred_a tie_n in_o oath_n and_o that_o god_n do_v expect_v from_o all_o man_n that_o all_o manner_n of_o legal_a oath_n make_v and_o swear_v to_o good_a intention_n as_o they_o have_v relation_n only_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o good_a of_o all_o mankind_n shall_v be_v always_o perform_v and_o keep_v unviolated_a as_o we_o may_v see_v by_o this_o league_n and_o oath_n between_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n and_o the_o gibeonite_n and_o though_o the_o gibeonite_n do_v at_o that_o time_n by_o such_o a_o beguile_a kind_n of_o way_n obtain_v their_o league_n of_o peace_n with_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n yet_o it_o be_v somewhat_o excusable_a in_o they_o because_o they_o do_v it_o only_o to_o save_v their_o life_n and_o not_o to_o save_v their_o money_n for_o they_o the_o gibeonite_n offer_v up_o both_o themselves_o and_o all_o that_o they_o have_v say_v to_o joshua_n and_o now_o behold_v we_o be_v in_o thy_o hand_n as_o it_o seem_v good_a and_o right_n unto_o thou_o to_o do_v unto_o we_o do_v as_o you_o may_v read_v it_o in_o the_o same_o 9th_o chapter_n of_o the_o book_n of_o joshua_n vers_fw-la 24_o 25_o 26_o 27._o again_o i_o say_v that_o action_n of_o the_o gibeonite_n be_v to_o be_v think_v somewhat_o the_o more_o excusable_a if_o we_o do_v but_o consider_v with_o ourselves_o how_o good_a and_o faithful_a abraham_n do_v the_o like_a when_o for_o fear_v of_o death_n he_o say_v to_o the_o egyptian_n that_o his_o wife_n sarah_n be_v his_o sister_n and_o also_o abraham_n himself_o persuade_v sarah_n his_o wife_n to_o say_v the_o like_a also_o to_o the_o egyptian_n look_v in_o genesis_n chap._n 12._o vers_fw-la 13._o and_o so_o onward_o to_o the_o end_n thereof_o but_o again_o i_o say_v good_a man_n evasion_n be_v no_o sufficient_a warrant_n to_o allow_v evil_a man_n in_o their_o most_o notorious_a wicked_a action_n and_o there_o be_v a_o vast_a difference_n between_o man_n evade_n of_o truth_n only_o to_o save_v their_o own_o life_n and_o that_o of_o be_v guilty_a of_o perjury_n both_o towards_o god_n and_o man_n only_o for_o to_o get_v or_o save_o a_o little_a money_n for_o that_o sin_n of_o evade_n truth_n only_o to_o save_v life_n itself_o may_v be_v forgive_v in_o and_o through_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n bare_o by_o a_o true_a repentance_n for_o it_o but_o fraud_n and_o perjuty_n be_v not_o forgive_v by_o repentance_n alone_o for_o restitution_n also_o must_v be_v make_v to_o such_o people_n as_o by_o their_o fraud_n and_o perjury_n they_o have_v any_o way_n wrouge_v but_o i_o must_v leave_v this_o necessary_a digression_n and_o now_o proceed_v onward_o to_o set_v forth_o my_o now_o design_a matter_n and_o so_o i_o say_v i_o also_o find_v that_o when_o the_o five_o king_n of_o the_o amorites_n go_v up_o to_o encamp_v before_o the_o city_n of_o gibeon_n then_o the_o man_n of_o gibeon_n send_v unto_o joshua_n to_o the_o camp_n of_o gilgal_n say_v slack_v not_o thy_o hand_n from_o thy_o servant_n come_v up_o to_o we_o quick_o and_o save_v we_o and_o help_v we_o for_o all_o the_o king_n of_o the_o amorites_n that_o dwell_v in_o the_o mountain_n
be_v gather_v together_o against_o we_o and_o then_o i_o find_v immediate_o upon_o the_o gibeonite_n request_n joshua_n with_o all_o the_o mighty_a man_n of_o valour_n ascend_v from_o gilgal_n and_o then_o the_o lord_n to_o encourage_v joshua_n say_v unto_o they_o fear_v they_o not_o for_o i_o have_v deliver_v they_o into_o thy_o hand_n there_o shall_v not_o a_o man_n of_o they_o stand_v before_o thou_o and_o thus_o joshua_n be_v encourage_v by_o the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o he_o go_v up_o from_o gilgal_n all_o night_n and_o come_v sudden_o upon_o they_o and_o then_o as_o the_o scripture-text_n say_v the_o lord_n discomfit_v they_o before_o israel_n and_o slay_v they_o with_o a_o great_a slaughter_n at_o gibeon_n and_o chase_v they_o along_o the_o way_n that_o go_v to_o bethhoron_a and_o smite_v they_o to_o azekah_n and_o unto_o mak-kedah_a and_o more_o the_o text_n say_v this_o and_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v as_o they_o flee_v from_o before_o israel_n and_o be_v in_o the_o go_n down_o to_o bethhoron_a that_o the_o lord_n cast_v down_o great_a hailstone_n from_o heaven_n upon_o they_o unto_o azekah_n and_o they_o die_v and_o then_o the_o text_n say_v in_o these_o word_n they_o be_v more_o which_o die_v with_o the_o hailstone_n than_o they_o who_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n slay_v with_o the_o sword_n and_o more_o the_o text_n say_v then_o speak_v joshua_n to_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o day_n when_o the_o lord_n deliver_v up_o the_o amorites_n before_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n and_o be_v say_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o israel_n sun_n stand_v thou_o still_o upon_o gibeon_n and_o thou_o moon_n in_o the_o valley_n of_o ajalon_n and_o the_o sun_n stand_v still_o and_o the_o moon_n stay_v until_o the_o people_n have_v avenge_v themselves_o upon_o their_o enemy_n and_o then_o the_o text_n say_v be_v not_o this_o write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o jasher_n so_o the_o sun_n stand_v still_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o heaven_n and_o haste_v not_o to_o go_v down_o about_o a_o whole_a day_n and_o there_o be_v no_o day_n like_o that_o before_o it_o or_o after_o it_o that_o the_o lord_n hearken_v to_o the_o voice_n of_o a_o man._n all_o this_o at_o large_a you_o may_v read_v it_o in_o the_o 10_o chapter_n of_o the_o book_n of_o joshua_n and_o now_o the_o use_n that_o i_o shall_v make_v of_o this_o be_v as_o follow_v and_o first_o of_o all_o i_o find_v that_o notwithstanding_o the_o gibeonite_n several_a evasion_n which_o they_o use_v in_o make_v up_o their_o league_n of_o peace_n with_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n yet_o god_n be_v please_v to_o own_v they_o because_o he_o know_v that_o the_o gibeonite_n in_o their_o heart_n believe_v in_o his_o word_n and_o dread_v his_o people_n israel_n and_o what_o they_o then_o do_v god_n himself_o know_v that_o it_o be_v not_o to_o deceive_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n of_o any_o of_o their_o worldly_a riches_n or_o to_o do_v they_o any_o bodily_a harm_n but_o that_o it_o be_v only_o out_o of_o a_o innocent_a fear_n to_o save_v their_o own_o life_n for_o they_o then_o think_v with_o themselves_o that_o if_o they_o shall_v then_o have_v appear_v plain_o unto_o joshua_n that_o then_o they_o shall_v not_o have_v obtain_v their_o peace_n with_o israel_n and_o by_o this_o we_o may_v see_v that_o in_o all_o thing_n god_n observe_v the_o will_n of_o man_n and_o that_o he_o take_v for_o their_o deed_n whether_o it_o be_v in_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a or_o whether_o it_o be_v in_o thing_n that_o be_v evil_a two_o i_o find_v that_o at_o any_o time_n whatsoever_o when_o god_n shall_v think_v it_o fit_a he_o can_v then_o immediate_o augment_v or_o diminish_v the_o force_n or_o influence_n of_o all_o the_o heavenly_a body_n or_o change_n or_o stop_v the_o course_n of_o the_o sun_n moon_n or_o star_n or_o he_o can_v continue_v or_o alter_v the_o whole_a frame_n of_o nature_n and_o from_o order_n turn_v into_o disorder_n all_o the_o other_o elementary_a part_n of_o this_o world_n whatsoever_o and_o how_o often_o soever_o and_o that_o to_o what_o use_n or_o purpose_n soever_o whether_o in_o way_n of_o mercy_n or_o judgement_n and_o therefore_o i_o say_v again_o that_o it_o must_v by_o these_o argument_n consequent_o follow_v that_o all_o these_o our_o late_a unfruitful_a year_n be_v by_o the_o immediate_a and_o providential_a hand_n of_o god_n so_o order_v to_o be_v and_o not_o by_o the_o natural_a course_n of_o the_o heavenly_a body_n only_o and_o according_o to_o their_o first_o ordination_n as_o our_o astrologer_n do_v affirm_v it_o so_o to_o be_v but_o how_o disagreeable_a such_o opinion_n be_v to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n i_o say_v judge_v you_o but_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v true_a and_o thereby_o i_o have_v make_v it_o manifest_v that_o the_o art_n of_o astrology_n be_v a_o fallible_a art_n and_o for_o the_o better_a confirmation_n of_o it_o i_o can_v well_o omit_v that_o precedent_n of_o good_a king_n hezekiah_n for_o when_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n tell_v he_o thus_o say_v the_o lord_n set_v thy_o house_n in_o order_n for_o thou_o shall_v die_v and_o not_o live_v then_o immediate_o hezekiah_n turn_v his_o face_n to_o the_o wall_n and_o with_o prayer_n and_o tear_n plead_v with_o god_n how_v he_o have_v walk_v before_o he_o in_o truth_n and_o with_o a_o perfect_a heart_n which_o prevail_v so_o far_o with_o the_o lord_n that_o he_o alter_v his_o decrec_n and_o before_o isaiah_n be_v go_v out_o of_o the_o middle_a court_n of_o the_o house_n or_o palace_n of_o king_n hezekiah_n the_o lord_n command_v the_o prophet_n isaiah_n to_o return_v back_o to_o hezekiah_n and_o to_o tell_v he_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v hear_v his_o prayer_n and_o see_v his_o tear_n for_o which_o he_o will_v heal_v he_o of_o his_o sickness_n and_o also_o on_o the_o three_o day_n he_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o go_v up_o into_o the_o house_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o also_o that_o the_o lord_n will_v then_o add_v unto_o the_o day_n of_o hezekiah_n fifteen_o year_n but_o hezekiah_n have_v on_o his_o spirit_n some_o doubt_n desire_v a_o sign_n whereby_o he_o may_v know_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v heal_v he_o which_o desire_n of_o good_a hezekiah_n god_n comply_v with_o and_o give_v he_o a_o sign_n which_o be_v that_o the_o sun_n shall_v go_v backward_o ten_o degree_n which_o thing_n be_v make_v manifest_a by_o the_o shadow_n go_v backward_o ten_o degree_n after_o it_o be_v go_v down_o ten_o degree_n in_o the_o dial_n of_o ahaz_n as_o you_o may_v read_v it_o at_o large_a in_o the_o second_o book_n of_o king_n the_o 20_o chapter_n from_o the_o begin_n of_o that_o chapter_n unto_o the_o 12_o verse_n and_o this_o i_o offer_v at_o large_a only_o to_o prove_v that_o god_n can_v as_o well_o now_o in_o our_o day_n take_v off_o the_o warm_a beam_n and_o most_o comfortable_a influence_n of_o the_o sun_n from_o the_o earth_n by_o way_n of_o judgement_n on_o the_o wicked_a as_o well_o as_o to_o make_v the_o sun_n go_v backward_o from_o his_o course_n by_o way_n of_o mercy_n for_o a_o sign_n only_o to_o satisfy_v the_o doubt_n of_o one_o single_a man_n and_o that_o because_o he_o have_v in_o he_o a_o upright_a and_o perfect_a heart_n and_o now_o i_o say_v by_o this_o place_n of_o scripture_n as_o well_o as_o in_o several_a other_o place_n of_o scripture_n we_o may_v see_v that_o prayer_n and_o tear_n prevail_v much_o with_o god_n when_o they_o have_v be_v offer_v up_o unto_o he_o with_o a_o true_a devout_a and_o sincere_a heart_n for_o be_v not_o david_n prayer_n hear_v by_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o
