God's Terrible Voice in the City:

Wherein you have 1. The sound of the voice, in the narration of the two late dreadful judgments of plague and fire, inflicted by the Lord upon the City of London, the former in the year, 1665, the latter in the year 1666. 2. The interpretation of the voice, in a discovery, 1. Of the cause of these judgments, where you have a catalog of London's sins. 2. Of the design of these judgments; where you have an enumeration of the duties God calls for by this terrible voice.

By T. V.
