Two sermons, of Jonahs punishmentTwo sermons, of Ionahs punishment

Doth not the Lord spare David, a king, and a Prophet for murder? Doth he not spare the Sichemites for adultery? Nor Absalom for treason: Nor Saul for tyranny? Nor Eli for negligence? nor A chab, Jeroboam, nor Jezebel for cruelty? nor Herod, Nebuchadnezzar, and Lucifer for pride? nor Pharaoh for incredulity? Then be favourable, O Lord, be favourable to us, in whom almost every one of these sins do dwell and remain. Did the Lord for corruption over flow the world with water? Did ⟨image 40⟩he burn Sodom for her villainy? Did he cast Adam and Eve out of Paradise, for eating of the forbidden fruit? Did he stone a poor wretch to death, for gathering chips on the Sabbath day? Then be favourable O Lord, be favourable unto us. But doth not the Lord spare the Cedar tree for his height, nor the Oak for his strength? Nor the Poplar for his smoothness? Nor the Laurel for his greenness? No verily, from the Cedar that is in Lebanon, even to the Hyssop that groweth out of the wall, yea, every one that bringeth not forth good fruit, is hewne down and cast into the fire: it is a righteous thing with God, to render vengeance to those that disobey him, and to destroy such as have forsaken the law by everlasting perdition.
