<HEAD><HI>A VVARNING TO</HI> All in this proud City called <HI>London</HI> to call them to Repentance, lea&s;t the Wrath of the Lord break out again&s;t them; this is the day of your vi&s;ita|tion if you will own it.</HEAD>
<P>VVO unto thee O <HI>London,</HI> (&s;o called by name) who ha&s;t made a profe&s;&s;ion of Chri&s;t; but ha&s;t cleared thy &s;elf from Chri&s;t, who lives in the affections of lu&s;ts, for who are Chri&s;ts have Crucified the fle&s;h, with the affections and lu&s;ts; your pride &s;tinks before the Lord, your glory and renown mu&s;t wither: plagues, wo and mi&s;ery, and vengeance from God, is coming upon you all, you proud and lofty ones, who have been the Adver&s;aries of God, your profe&s;&s;ion &s;tinks before the Lord, pride and hardheartedne&s;s abounds, cruelty and oppre&s;&s;ion grows &amp; abounds in your Streets, and &s;uch are you that would know meanings to the Scriptures, and cries for meanings, meanings, and which lives in your conceivings, which mu&s;t be &s;cattered from the Lord God, and from the Life which gave forth the Scriptures, for you have here cleared your &s;elves from the life which was in them which gave forth the Scriptures, for the Life which gave forth the Scriptures, hews down pride and oppre&s;&s;ion, and envious ones, and lu&s;ts hardheartedne&s;s, which thy &s;treets are ful of: And O <HI>London</HI> thou art full of Inventions, and full of Images and Image-makers, Pictures, gla&s;&s;ed hoods, vails, and round atire like the Moon; let the Life which gave forth the Scriptures &s;earch thee, and Judg thee, and bring thee under Conedmna|tion, for the&s;e things art thou guilty of, O how doth all exce&s;s abound, and pride and lu&s;ts, and filthine&s;s, which &s;tinks before the Lord God, and the &s;mell of it is come up among&s;t his children, Plagues, plagues, plagues, is to be poured upon thee; how beautiful art thou in thy colours, and in thy change|able &s;uits of Apparrel, and thy dainty di&s;hes, <HI>Dives</HI> like, who was turned into Hell; the Life which gave forth the Scriptures, &s;hall Judg thee Eter|nally, and the Life it lyes upon thee Judging thee: Over all the heads of the wicked, heads of the oppre&s;&s;ors, heads of the proud, the <HI>Devil</HI> is King; wo is pronounced from the Life of God upon thee, who hath drawn out his Sword, to hew thee to peices, and to thre&s;h thee; to &s;catter you all as chaff with the wind, to burn you as &s;tubble with the fire, <HI>The Mouth of the Lord hath &s;poken it;</HI> this is the portion of all the wicked. To the ju&s;t and them that fear the Lord I &s;ay, come out of her ways le&s;t you be con&s;umed with her, that you may give Judgment upon the Whore, that &s;its upon &s;o many wa|ters, lea&s;t you be partakers of her plagues, hearken to God and hear him; for the Rod of God is over you, and you mu&s;t come under it, for your Whoredom and for your pride and oppre&s;&s;ion, and hypocri&s;ie and de&s;em|bling, the Lord will find you all out, for his Mighty day is coming, to all your con&s;ciences I &s;peak; which hath been convinced but hath not repent|ed, torment, torment, the fire is kindled, wo unto you all; plotters to do mi&s;chief, who are not &s;ingle to God: Wo unto you all &s;tubborn hard heart|ed ones, the Life which gave forth the Scriptures lyes upon thee, Judging thee, and this is the Word of the Lord to you all, to that in all your con|&s;ciences I &s;peak, which will witne&s;s me, and condemn you, who live in the&s;e wicked practi&s;es.</P>
