They called it the plague, although plague was a word for an outbreak of disease generally. "A plague upon it" is an extremely common expression in Shakespeare. A book of remedies for the plague, published during the 1593 outbreak, has the amusing title "A defensatiue against the plague: contayning two partes or treatises: the first, shewing the meanes how to preserue vs from the dangerous contagion thereof: the second, how to cure those that are infected therewith. Whereunto is annexed a short treatise of the small poxe: shewing how to gouerne and helpe those that are infected therewith. Published for the loue and benefit of his countrie by Simon Kellwaye Gentleman" Note that the plague was called "the plague", and smallpox "the small poxe".
