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

first_o rise_n and_o growth_n from_o clipper_n and_o false_a coiner_n of_o money_n who_o lay_v their_o head_n together_o and_o consult_v how_o they_o may_v have_v a_o trade_n and_o then_o immediate_o

be_v crack_v almost_o through_o and_o such_o crack_a money_n as_o that_o can_v be_v make_v to_o pass_v but_o then_o again_o say_v that_o cunning_a subtle_a fellow_n that_o first_o start_v the_o

such_o money_n we_o can_v clip_v and_o afterward_o it_o will_v pass_v current_o and_o then_o all_o such_o money_n as_o be_v deep_o crack_v we_o can_v melt_v down_o and_o new_a coin_n it_o and_o clip_v it_o afterward_o but_o then_o present_o up_o start_v a_o expert_a false_a coiner_n and_o say_v what_o need_v we_o give_v ourselves_o double_a trouble_n why_o do_v you_o think_v that_o a_o piece_n of_o

again_o sir_n i_o will_v warrant_v to_o do_v it_o artificial_o and_o complete_o and_o in_o the_o do_n of_o it_o i_o will_v not_o use_v six_o pennyworth_n of_o silver_n in_o a_o shilling_n and_o but_o

passable_a without_o objection_n nay_o say_v the_o whole_a company_n if_o you_o can_v do_v so_o our_o business_n be_v do_v then_o say_v that_o false_a coiner_n gentleman_n rest_v yourselves_o

some_o to_o clip_v and_o some_o to_o false_a coin_n the_o latter_a of_o which_o it_o be_v suppose_v there_o be_v abundance_n of_o it_o make_v and_o in_o a_o littie_n time_n such_o sort_n of_o money_n

by_o some_o that_o for_o the_o love_n of_o put_v off_o such_o sort_n of_o small_a money_n bring_v guinnea_n to_z so_o high_a a_o price_n for_o there_o come_v down_o here_o into_o the_o country_n pretend_v merchant_n and_o gather_v up_o all_o the_o guinea_n that_o they_o can_v get_v and_o exchange_v change_v such_o small_a money_n for_o they_o and_o also_o it_o be_v say_v that_o then_o at_o

as_o they_o then_o have_v occasion_n for_o it_o and_o be_v not_o this_o a_o curse_a trade_n for_o such_o man_n to_o use_v that_o have_v swear_v to_o be_v true_a both_o to_o the_o king_n and_o county_n

great_a money_n master_n who_o be_v very_o rich_a or_o such_o as_o have_v always_o to_o command_v vast_a and_o large_a sum_n of_o money_n as_o great_a banker_n great_a usurer_n great_a merchant_n

their_o command_n great_a and_o large_a sum_n of_o money_n and_o also_o they_o all_o of_o they_o have_v a_o more_o commodious_a way_n and_o better_a opportunity_n to_o put_v off_o all_o such_o clip_v

the_o like_a devilish_a trade_n but_o now_o upon_o the_o whole_a i_o say_v i_o be_o apt_a to_o believe_v that_o many_o of_o those_o clipper_n and_o some_o of_o those_o false_a coiner_n that_o have_v be_v just_o execute_v for_o such_o fact_n be_v but_o the_o hire_a servant_n of_o some_o such_o man_n as_o be_v before_o mention_v yet_o trusty_a servant_n to_o such_o master_n for_o they_o will_v

in_o the_o 6_o chapter_n of_o genesis_n vers_fw-la 3._o but_o they_o of_o the_o old_a world_n in_o all_o that_o time_n do_v not_o repent_v and_o therefore_o at_o last_o they_o be_v all_o drown_v in_o

judgement_n against_o they_o by_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o prophet_n jonah_n but_o as_o soon_o as_o jonah_n have_v preach_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n unto_o they_o and_o tell_v they_o yet_o forty_o day_n and_o nineveh_n shall_v be_v overthrow_v then_o they_o present_o believe_v and_o repent_v from_o the_o high_a to_o the_o low_a of_o they_o and_o therefore_o god_n show_v they_o mercy_n

there_o be_v in_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o such_o wickedness_n as_o these_o do_v not_o only_o continue_v among_o we_o but_o now_o they_o do_v superabound_v abundant_o beyond_o measure_n all_o england_n over_o and_o therefore_o i_o say_v both_o from_o reason_n and_o scripture_n rational_o and_o divine_o we_o may_v all_o of_o we_o think_v ourselves_o to_o be_v as_o great_a sinner_n as_o any_o be_v in_o the_o old_a world_n or_o in_o any_o other_o nation_n ever_o since_o the_o world_n begin_v who_o have_v be_v destroy_v for_o their_o sin_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v now_o high_a time_n for_o we_o all_o to_o repent_v and_o amend_v our_o life_n for_o who_o can_v tell_v what_o may_v follow_v these_o our_o most_o great_a and_o grievous_a sin_n and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v question_v whether_o our_o sin_n may_v deserve_v that_o mercy_n from_o god_n which_o the_o ninehvite_n then_o receive_v from_o he_o for_o they_o the_o ninehvite_n immediate_o repent_v at_o the_o preach_a of_o the_o prophet_n jonah_n as_o you_o may_v read_v it_o in_o the_o 12_o chap._n of_o matthew_n vers_n 41._o but_o for_o ourselves_o it_o be_v much_o to_o be_v fear_v that_o our_o impenitent_a heart_n be_v now_o much_o like_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o old_a jew_n who_o be_v too_o much_o harden_v to_o repent_v which_o if_o so_o who_o can_v tell_v how_o soon_o we_o may_v feel_v the_o severe_a judgement_n of_o god_n among_o we_o for_o we_o be_v as_o great_a sinner_n as_o any_o of_o they_o be_v look_v in_o the_o 13_o chapter_n of_o saint_n luke_n gospel_n the_o 1_o 2_o 3_o 4_o and_o 5_o verse_n and_o there_o you_o will_v find_v that_o when_o some_o tell_v christ_n what_o great_a sinner_n the_o galilean_n be_v jesus_n answer_v they_o suppose_v you_o that_o these_o galilean_n be_v sinner_n above_o all_o the_o galilean_n i_o tell_v you_o nay_o but_o except_o you_o repent_v you_o shall_v all_o likewise_o perish_v or_o those_o eighteen_o upon_o who_o the_o tower_n in_o siloam_n fall_v and_o slay_v they_o think_v you_o they_o be_v sinner_n above_o all_o man_n that_o dwell_v in_o jerusalem_n i_o tell_v you_o nay_o but_o except_o you_o repent_v you_o shall_v all_o likewise_o perish_v and_o thus_o we_o see_v the_o jew_n have_v warning_n from_o christ_n himself_o and_o yet_o they_o do_v not_o repent_v and_o now_o be_v not_o we_o in_o england_n warn_v to_o repentance_n and_o that_o not_o only_o by_o sign_n and_o token_n from_o heaven_n and_o earth_n but_o by_o the_o holy_a bible_n the_o write_a word_n of_o god_n wherein_o we_o may_v see_v by_o all_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n and_o jesus_n christ_n and_o by_o all_o the_o say_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o all_o such_o horrid_a sin_n as_o we_o now_o daily_o commit_v and_o

low_a to_o repent_v and_o turn_v we_o every_o one_o of_o we_o from_o our_o evil_a way_n and_o though_o we_o have_v not_o now_o among_o we_o in_o these_o our_o day_n personal_o the_o prophet_n and_o

the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o all_o the_o commandment_n and_o say_n of_o our_o bless_a lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n and_o then_o for_o the_o better_a performance_n of_o it_o they_o be_v not_o want_v to_o offer_v up_o their_o most_o devout_a prayer_n to_o almighty_a god_n for_o his_o blessing_n to_o remain_v upon_o they_o these_o pastor_n and_o only_o such_o good_a pastor_n as_o
