Another way may death happen to a man before the time, by reason of his great & grievous since: As the LORD hath threatened by Moses, that if his commandment be not kept, he will cause pestilence to reign. Whereout it is certain, that when they be kept, the plague abideth out. Likewise sayeth he in the commandments: Honour father and mother that thou mayest livelong, &c. Out of the which it is certain, that his life which doth them not,1 shall be shortened. In like manner sayeth David in the .lv. Psal. The blood thirsty shall not bring their life to the half number. Whereout it is sure that they should live much longer, if they shed not innocent blood. Likewise sayeth Christ Luce. xii. If ye do not repent, ye shall all perish, as they that the tower in Siloa fell upon. Where by it is certain, that who so repenteth not, may look for all misfortune.
