Carnall consultations, it may be, may conclude, that so many children died of the plague, this was a cruell affliction: But I say, Deus fecit nihil inaniter, nihil inhumaniter, that these judgements were not without wisdome, they were not without mercies. That Infants were destroyed, carnall men may call it cruelty, but it was crudelitas parcens, in verity very mercy. Although they did not know their right hand from their left, yet God (it may be) did know that they would patrizare, imitate the sinister dealings of their naughty Parents, and therefore to withhold them from a sinfull life by a timely death; this was Gods mercy: and wee who have escaped the plague, if we continue in our sinnes, it is misericordia puniens, to incurre greater judgements, if we be not prevented by Gods mercy. |
