Great Plague

The great plague of this and the subsequent year broke out at St. Giles, London.

Nine years later there followed the great plague, of which Boccaccio has left us so terrible an impression.

In 1563 he observed a conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn, the precursor, and cause as he thought it, of the great plague.

When the great plague broke out he remained at his house in Walbrook, and gave advice to all who sought it.

One of the most remarkable facts in connection with the great plague is this—that it was the last in England.
