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

in_o the_o do_n of_o this_o i_o have_v only_o endeavour_v to_o be_v wise_a concern_v what_o be_v good_a and_o i_o be_o simple_a in_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v or_o can_v be_v evil_a in_o the_o do_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o i_o hope_v all_o man_n whatsoever_o will_v have_v so_o much_o charity_n for_o i_o as_o to_o believe_v i_o in_o what_o i_o here_o say_v for_o the_o god_n of_o heaven_n do_v

nature_n that_o may_v any_o way_n proper_o be_v call_v preach_v for_o i_o dare_v not_o take_v upon_o i_o to_o mention_v any_o particular_a scripture_n only_o to_o raise_v other_o discourse_n from_o

be_v good_a for_o i_o think_v with_o myself_o this_o that_o though_o some_o man_n may_v not_o believe_v these_o my_o argument_n alone_a yet_o my_o hope_n be_v that_o when_o my_o argument_n be_v agreeable_a with_o god_n word_n that_o then_o man_n may_v the_o soon_o embrace_v they_o and_o believe_v in_o they_o but_o as_o for_o preach_v i_o dare_v not_o think_v myself_o any_o way_n qualify_v

but_o i_o mean_v some_o of_o they_o then_o be_v and_o now_o be_v such_o a_o sort_n of_o rich_a man_n as_o we_o poor_a country-folk_n here_o among_o we_o do_v call_v they_o rich_a top_v tower_a man_n and_o such_o man_n as_o have_v all_o of_o they_o take_v the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n and_o supremacy_n and_o they_o do_v say_v all_o of_o they_o that_o they_o will_v fight_v for_o your_o majesty_n and_o the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o the_o good_a of_o their_o country_n but_o who_o can_v believe_v they_o if_o those_o reason_n which_o i_o shall_v here_o now_o offer_v be_v but_o well_o and_o due_o consider_v and_o now_o i_o say_v it_o be_v visible_o see_v and_o by_o their_o action_n too_o notorivos_o know_v that_o such_o evil-minded_n man_n as_o aforesaid_a have_v always_o have_v from_o time_n to_o time_n base_a wretched_a and_o self-intrested_n heart_n and_o to_o save_v their_o own_o money_n they_o will_v do_v almost_o any_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n and_o also_o in_o and_o by_o a_o base_a hypocritical_a undermine_a and_o clandestine_v way_n they_o will_v use_v all_o manner_n of_o fraud_n that_o their_o most_o wicked_a heart_n can_v invent_v to_o get_v riches_n although_o at_o the_o same_o time_n in_o their_o own_o heart_n they_o must_v then_o needs_o be_v sensible_a that_o such_o action_n be_v the_o ready_a way_n and_o mean_n to_o pull_v down_o true_a religion_n and_o overthrow_v the_o king_n and_o ruin_v our_o country_n and_o therefore_o i_o say_v can_v any_o soul_n believe_v that_o such_o man_n as_o will_v for_o the_o love_n of_o money_n deceive_v our_o king_n and_o ruin_v our_o country_n that_o they_o will_v ever_o fight_v for_o the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o king_n and_o country_n no_o no_o for_o i_o be_o apt_a to_o believe_v that_o they_o will_v rather_o every_o man_n of_o they_o forsake_v the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o leave_v our_o king_n and_o country_n to_o the_o mercy_n of_o a_o enemy_n than_o fight_n for_o any_o religion_n king_n or_o country_n whatsoever_o and_o therefore_o i_o think_v it_o not_o safe_a for_o any_o one_o to_o put_v to_o much_o trust_n in_o any_o such_o man_n that_o at_o the_o best_a be_v but_o like_o great_a

he_o do_v not_o value_v a_o fall_n to_o the_o ground_n by_o they_o but_o however_o among_o such_o man_n some_o of_o they_o perhaps_o will_v fight_v with_o a_o thief_n in_o the_o night_n rather_o than_o they_o will_v lose_v all_o their_o money_n and_o that_o only_o because_o such_o man_n adore_v and_o love_v their_o money_n more_o than_o they_o do_v love_n god_n or_o religion_n the_o king_n or_o country_n for_o such_o man_n seldom_o regard_v any_o one_o good_n but_o their_o own_o nay_o in_o fine_a i_o say_v if_o all_o thing_n be_v but_o well_o and_o due_o consider_v such_o man_n do_v not_o at_o all_o by_o do_v such_o action_n true_o love_v themselves_o and_o thus_o i_o end_v the_o second_o part_n of_o my_o discourse_n but_o three_o there_o be_v one_o other_o before_o grievance_n which_o of_o late_o have_v and_o now_o do_v continual_o damnify_v all_o your_o majesty_n poor_a middle_n mean_v sort_n of_o subject_n and_o that_o be_v the_o loss_n of_o trade_n for_o ever_o since_o

for_o aught_o i_o know_v trading_n may_v have_v continue_v good_a to_o this_o day_n or_o if_o they_o have_v then_o at_o that_o time_n but_o so_o employ_v their_o wit_n in_o make_v all_o manner_n of_o

think_v on_o to_o make_v a_o mere_a prey_n on_o the_o poor_a only_o to_o gratify_v their_o own_o unsatiable_a desire_n that_o they_o then_o have_v after_o their_o filthy_a lucre_n and_o most_o

please_v god_n than_o his_o blessing_n do_v common_o attend_v such_o man_n undertake_n but_o when_o man_n under_o pretence_n of_o do_v all_o manner_n of_o good_a ●o_o then_o all_o manner_n of_o evil_a

advise_v all_o such_o man_n as_o have_v so_o do_v forth_o with_o to_o repent_v they_o of_o their_o evil_a do_n and_o also_o to_o make_v speedy_a restitution_n in_o the_o best_a way_n and_o manner_n that_o they_o now_o can_v make_v lest_o the_o cry_v of_o the_o poor_a do_v at_o last_o ascend_v up_o into_o heaven_n and_o from_o thence_o bring_v down_o vengeance_n on_o earth_n and_o on_o the_o

such_o covetous_a rich_a man_n as_o aforesaid_a do_v then_o so_o act_n as_o if_o they_o have_v then_o be_v whole_o bend_v to_o bring_v future_a poverty_n upon_o our_o whole_a nation_n for_o they_o

they_o can_v more_o easy_o then_o make_v a_o prey_n of_o they_o than_o of_o other_o and_o as_o if_o sorrow_n have_v be_v then_o on_o purposs_n add_v to_o their_o affliction_n so_o then_o those_o great_a loss_n come_v on_o the_o poor_a midle_n and_o mean_a sort_n of_o people_n in_o the_o very_a time_n of_o their_o great_a need_n for_o tax_n than_o be_v very_o high_a and_o hoar_a heavy_a on_o

when_o they_o have_v sell_v they_o many_o time_n they_o have_v for_o they_o but_o little_o more_o than_o half_a the_o value_n of_o they_o and_o then_o with_o this_o little_a money_n they_o do_v buy_v
