A87192 Londons charity inlarged, stilling the orphans cry. By the liberality of the Parliament, in granting two houses by Act, and giving a thousand pound towards the work for the imployment of the poor, and education of poor children, who many of them are destroyed in their youth for want of being under a good government and education, whereby they may be made serviceable for God, and the Commonwealth. Also this good work is much encouraged by the liberall contributions of many well-affected citizens of London, for the better carrying it on for the glory of God, the honor of the nation, and comfort of the helples poor. With a platform, how many officers needfull to govern 100 children in a work-house, with laws and orders for the schoolmaster to read to the children once a day for a time, afterwards twice a month, whereby they may be kept under a godly and civill government, to the great joy of good peopl. With other observations worthy the reading. / By S.H. a well-wisher to the nations prosperity, and the poors comfort. Hartlib, Samuel, d. 1662. 1650 (1650) Wing H993; Thomason E598_4; ESTC R206315 18,731 24

the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o the_o commonwealth_n show_v himself_o to_o be_v no_o true_a friend_n to_o god_n nor_o the_o commonwealth_n therefore_o i_o counsel_v all_o people_n hy_z and_o low_a to_o their_o uttermost_a advance_v the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o the_o good_a of_o the_o commonwealth_n lest_o they_o fall_v and_o perish_v as_o many_o great_a man_n have_v do_v of_o late_a for_o it_o be_v dangerous_a when_o god_n and_o a_o commonwealth_n eye_n a_o man_n as_o no_o friend_n to_o they_o the_o work_n of_o well-ordering_n the_o poor_a be_v a_o rare_a work_n and_o by_o it_o three_o

will_v rejoice_v when_o sin_n in_o child_n and_o other_o be_v beat_v down_o 3_o the_o poor_a child_n will_v have_v a_o benefit_n by_o it_o because_o thereby_o they_o be_v like_a to_o be_v make_v serviceabl_a for_o the_o commonwealth_n otherwise_o they_o will_v be_v as_o thorn_n in_o the_o side_n of_o the_o nation_n wherefore_o i_o rejoice_v when_o i_o see_v great_a man_n in_o hy_z place_n to_o have_v pious_a heart_n and_o public_a spirit_n such_o person_n god_n and_o a_o nation_n will_v stand_v for_o against_o all_o their_o enemy_n and_o he_o will_v make_v their_o enemy_n to_o be_v at_o peace_n with_o they_o but_o as_o for_o such_o that_o be_v enemy_n to_o this_o good_a work_n either_o by_o oppose_v it_o in_o their_o word_n and_o work_n or_o by_o starve_v it_o with_o their_o poor_a and_o small_a charity_n i_o fear_v god_n have_v a_o curse_n for_o they_o here_o or_o a_o woe_n for_o they_o hereafter_o when_o christ_n shall_v say_v go_v you_o curse_v into_o everlasting_a fire_n prepare_v for_o the_o devil_n and_o it_o be_v angel_n and_o christ_n will_v say_v to_o such_o inasmuch_o as_o you_o have_v not_o do_v it_o to_o the_o poor_a you_o have_v not_o do_v it_o to_o i_o such_o opposer_n of_o charitabl_a good_a work_n when_o they_o shall_v come_v upon_o their_o deathbed_n they_o will_v then_o wish_v they_o have_v give_v half_o their_o estate_n with_o zacheus_n that_o they_o can_v then_o obtain_v the_o love_n of_o a_o christ_n and_o the_o happiness_n of_o a_o zacheus_n that_o salvation_n may_v come_v unto_o their_o house_n as_o it_o do_v unto_o he_o therefore_o i_o wish_v all_o rich_a man_n that_o desire_v to_o obtain_v the_o love_n of_o a_o christ_n to_o make_v their_o hand_n and_o their_o eye_n their_o first_o executor_n because_o their_o last_o executor_n may_v deceive_v they_o as_o some_o have_v do_v consider_v if_o child_n be_v keep_v under_o government_n and_o employment_n they_o be_v the_o fit_a for_o tradesman_n and_o other_o and_o so_o thereby_o make_v serviceabl_a to_o the_o commonwealth_n so_o that_o the_o loss_n of_o 200_o l._n be_v the_o preserve_n of_o 100_o child_n from_o ruin_n therefore_o we_o conclude_v if_o the_o city_n of_o london_n shall_v lose_v 1000_o l._n per_fw-la annum_fw-la in_o this_o work_n yet_o they_o will_v gain_v by_o it_o in_o the_o preservation_n of_o 500_o child_n and_o more_o for_o if_o child_n be_v not_o keep_v under_o a_o government_n they_o will_v in_o time_n grow_v to_o a_o generation_n of_o ungodly_a wretch_n have_v no_o fear_n of_o god_n before_o their_o eye_n and_o so_o become_v a_o dishonour_n to_o god_n and_o a_o burden_n to_o the_o commonwealth_n therefore_o let_v we_o judge_v serious_o which_o will_v be_v the_o great_a loss_n either_o money_n or_o people_n to_o a_o commonwealth_n viz._n whether_o 500_o child_n shall_v perish_v yearly_a rather_o than_o the_o city_n of_o london_n shall_v lose_v 1000_o l._n over_o and_o above_o their_o other_o common_a charity_n if_o ungodly_a uncharitable_a muck-worm_n shall_v say_v we_o have_v rather_o see_v 500_o child_n beg_v and_o starve_v yearly_a rather_o than_o the_o city_n of_o london_n shall_v lose_v 1000_o l._n yearly_o towards_o poor_a child_n education_n and_o relief_n i_o will_v say_v to_o such_o unchristian_a like_o people_n as_o st._n peter_n say_v to_o simon_n magus_n thy_o money_n perish_v with_o thou_o so_o say_v i_o let_v their_o money_n perish_v with_o they_o rather_o than_o poor_a soul_n shall_v perish_v for_o the_o want_n of_o so_o small_a a_o portion_n of_o food_n for_o a_o meal_n as_o i_o have_v set_v down_o before_o and_o whereas_o the_o loss_n of_o 200_o li._n arise_v in_o the_o diet_n of_o 100_o child_n if_o these_o ensue_a help_n may_v be_v gain_v the_o loss_n will_v then_o be_v very_o little_a which_o be_v by_o way_n of_o gather_v from_o baker_n and_o other_o who_o give_v bread_n one_o or_o two_o day_n a_o week_n constant_o to_o the_o poor_a at_o their_o door_n but_o if_o the_o poor_a of_o the_o work-house_n may_v have_v it_o they_o will_v rather_o give_v it_o there_o for_o i_o understand_v there_o be_v many_o honourable_a and_o rich_a person_n in_o and_o about_o london_n be_v resolve_v to_o give_v no_o more_o at_o their_o door_n since_o they_o have_v hear_v of_o a_o corporation_n appoint_v to_o regulate_v the_o poor_a by_o work_n and_o other_o good_a

return_n of_o the_o carrier_n and_o their_o hand_n with_o the_o hand_n either_o of_o a_o justice_n or_o minister_n of_o the_o parish_n of_o the_o truth_n whether_o ever_o any_o such_o person_n be_v bear_v there_o or_o inhabit_v among_o they_o by_o this_o mean_n you_o will_v soon_o discover_v much_o falsehood_n among_o beggar_n and_o much_o carelessness_n among_o constable_n in_o not_o guide_v home_o the_o beggar_n to_o their_o parish_n a_o penalty_n on_o they_o will_v make_v they_o be_v careful_a therefore_o if_o the_o corporation_n do_v intend_v to_o do_v the_o work_n true_o faithful_o and_o with_o advantage_n to_o the_o commonwealth_n they_o must_v neither_o take_v the_o word_n of_o a_o wander_a beggar_n nor_o the_o true_a service_n of_o a_o careless_a constable_n for_o they_o be_v both_o ill_a member_n to_o a_o well-governed_a commonwealth_n and_o will_v deceive_v therefore_o two_o letter_n from_o the_o corporation_n to_o the_o parish_n where_o the_o beggar_n say_v he_o be_v bear_v or_o last_o abode_n will_v be_v very_o necessary_a viz._n one_o to_o know_v the_o truth_n whether_o ever_o any_o such_o person_n belong_v to_o they_o by_o this_o mean_n you_o shall_v have_v a_o true_a account_n whether_o the_o beggar_n report_v be_v true_a the_o other_o letter_n be_v when_o the_o beggar_n be_v send_v away_o with_o the_o pass_n to_o know_v whether_o he_o be_v come_v to_o his_o parish_n if_o not_o you_o shall_v be_v sure_a then_o to_o know_v what_o constable_n be_v in_o the_o fault_n that_o the_o beggar_n be_v not_o conduct_v to_o his_o parish_n such_o constable_n be_v fine_v will_v make_v other_o beware_v this_o will_v be_v little_a charge_n to_o the_o corporation_n and_o your_o work_n do_v very_o judicious_o with_o care_n and_o prudence_n for_o some_o beggar_n may_v commit_v some_o misdemeanour_n in_o their_o country_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o simple_a thing_n to_o take_v their_o word_n for_o they_o will_v never_o tell_v truth_n as_o for_o example_n suppose_v a_o constable_n of_o london_n shall_v take_v up_o a_o beggar_n in_o his_o precinct_n or_o parish_n and_o shall_v ask_v he_o where_o he_o be_v bear_v or_o last_o dwell_v the_o beggar_n
