God's terrible voice in the city

And if Monday night was dreadful, Tuesday night was more dreadful, when far the greatest part of the City was consumed: many thousands who on Saturday had Houses convenient in the City, both for themselves, and to entertain others, now have not where to lay their head; and the fields are the only receptacle, which they can find for themselves and their goods; most of the late Inhabitants of London lye all night in the open Air, with no other canopy over them, but that of the Heavens: The fire is still making towards them, and threateneth the Suburbs; it was amazing to see, how it had spread it self several miles in compass; and amongst other things that night, the sight of Guild-hall was a fearful spectacle, which stood the whole body of it together in view, for several hours together, after the fire had taken it, without flames, (I suppose because the timber was such ⟨p. 67⟩solid Oak) in a bright shining coal as if it had been a Palace of gold, or a great building of burnished Brass.
