Notes: Plague poem that concludes by arguing that God has sent the plague in order to cleanse and purify a sinful nation for Charles upon his accession to the throne. Taylor argues that the plague that coincided with the death of Elizabeth I and the accession of James I and VI in 1603 is a precedent for such a deliverance [sigs. B2v-B3r].
