Notes: Strictly speaking this is a piece of plague literature, written on the outbreak in London in 1625. The author does, however, count among the reasons for the outbreak London's negligence in mourning the death of 'our late Soveraigne deceased', who 'we had almost ungratefully forgotten in a day.' The work therefore seems to link the plague and the succession.
