A27207	How could Men be conceiv''d to have liv''d in those times, but as they have lately been found to do in the West- Indies?
A27207	Is it that the suppos''d Richness of the Antediluvian Soil could have supply''d all this?
A27207	Is it that they are lighter?
A27207	Is it, in that they have made a deform''d World from Eternity, which came in time to be adorn''d?

A27207	What Seat has God, but th''Earth, the Air, the Seas, The Heavens, and Vertue?

A27207	nonne& coelum& terram; ut huic animali ac terrestri vitae inservirent, Deus creavit?
A27207	quâ cessante propter quam utrumque conditum fuit, an non& ipsa cessare debent?
A30486	And if there was no oleagineous matter in the new- made Earth, how came the soil to be so fertile, so fat, so unctuous?
A30486	And is not that common receiv''d sence, the sence of the Church?
A30486	And to break from the Church in greater points, and scruple it in less, is not this to strain at Gnats, and swallow Camels?
A30486	And was that such, as made it necessary to set up a new Hypothesis for explaining the Flood?
A30486	And what could hinder their having that practice and experience, if they had an open Sea, and all Iron and other materials, for that use and purpose?
A30486	And what does the famous Aristotelian Hypothesis seem to be now, but a mass of Errours?
A30486	As to Extraordinary Providence, Is the Theorist alone debarr''d from recourse to it, or would he have all men debarr''d, as well as the Theorist?
A30486	Besides, what bounds will you give to these Maritime Mountains?
A30486	Besides, what length of time would you require, for the production of these Inland Mountains?
A30486	But are they said any where in the story of the Deluge, to have been famish''d?
A30486	But if he will not confine their production to Moses''s six days, how does he keep to the Mosaical Hypothesis?
A30486	But what''s this to the purpose?
A30486	But where, pray, hath he granted, that the motion of the Earth was one of those cases?
A30486	But who says so besides himself?
A30486	But why not?
A30486	Does he expect then that his single word and authority, should countervail all the ancient Translators and Interpreters?
A30486	Does it enable him to encounter whole Regiments of Souldiers in his single person?
A30486	Does it impower him to carry a Cannon upon his neck?
A30486	Either his Hypothesis is more rational than the Church- Hypothesis, or less rational?
A30486	For why might not the Rivers of that Earth have Fish in them, as well as the Rivers of this Earth, or as our Rivers now?
A30486	If a man had cursed God, or call''d our Saviour an Impostor, what could he have been charg''d with more, than Blasphemy, horrid blasphemy?
A30486	If less rational, why does he take us off from a better, to amuse us with a worse?
A30486	If so, what was this ordinary supposition: was it not the supposition of the Church?
A30486	If so, why doth he use it so much himself?
A30486	If this be his rule, to what Texts does there accrue any absurdity or incongruity, by supposing the Sun to move?
A30486	In such an uninterrupted Ridge of Mountains, where do the Land- Mountains end, and the Sea- mountains begin?
A30486	It is not still as plainly affirm''d, as before, that, according to the Theory, the Ecliptick in the Primitive Earth was its Equinoctial?
A30486	It might as well have been askt, says he, why does not the fire make a dough- bak''d loaf swell and ● uff up?
A30486	Must not that still be a Postulatum, and an unmerciful one?
A30486	Now can he make this answer for his fifteen- Cubit Deluge?
A30486	Now those reasons he thought either to be good reasons, or bad reasons: if bad, why did he set them down, or why did he not confute them?
A30486	Now what better authorities can he bring us for his translation?
A30486	Or if his power be sufficient for such effects, why have we not Mountains made still to this day?
A30486	Or to put a slip upon the Crocodile''s neck, and play with him as with a Dog?
A30486	Or what mark is there, whereby we may know that they are not all of the same race, or do not all spring from the same original?
A30486	Or when the great Gun is fir''d off, to catch the Bullet as it flies, and put it up in his Pocket?
A30486	Romances suppose, and Poetical fictions: Will you have your fifteen- cubit Deluge pass for such?
A30486	So when God gave Adam dominion over the Fowls, did he mean that he should dive like a Duck, or soar like a Falcon?
A30486	The Defender hath made some answer to this question, in these words, The question is put, why have we no Mountains made now?
A30486	The dry ground,& c. How does this alter or mend the sence?
A30486	Then say I still, why do you desert it, or why do you trouble us with a new one?
A30486	These are his words, Is not his distinction equally plain in both cases?
A30486	This is a wild step: why 30 hours?
A30486	This is fairly to beg the question, and can he suppose the Theorist so easie as to grant this without proof?
A30486	This prosperous prevailing error, or mass of errors, was it not espoused and supported by the Church?
A30486	To drain it as a Ditch, or to take all its Fry at once in a Dragnet?
A30486	Was he to snare the Shark, as we do young Pickarels: or to bridle the Sea- Horse, and ride him for a Pad?
A30486	What authority have we then to make this distinction: or to suppose that all the great Mountains of the Earth were not made together?
A30486	What is now reply''d to this?
A30486	What says the Defence of the Exceptions to this?
A30486	When God gave Adam dominion over the Sea, was he to be able to dwell at the bottom, or to walk on the top of it?
A30486	When the King makes a Gentleman Lord- Lieutenant of a County, by virtue of his Commission is he presently the strongest man that is in it?
A30486	Where then, pray, do these Pillars stand that bear up the Earth?
A30486	Where''s the inconsistency of this?
A30486	against that supposition?
A30486	and his unusual gloss contrary to it?
A30486	are they distinguisht from Inland Mountains barely by their distance from the Sea, or by some other Character?
A30486	because the literal sence is not to his mind?
A30486	or how shall we know where he will stop, in his own way?
A30486	or if they bear up the Earth, what bears them up?
A30486	that he should swim as naturally as the Swan, and hunt the Kite, or Hobby, as Boys do the Wren?
A30486	were they not all made within the six- days Creation?
A30486	what are their Pedestals, or their foundations?
A30486	when it came first out of a Chaos?
A30486	where does Scripture say so: or where does the Theorist say so?
A30486	yet suppose it be so, may not the Theorist then enjoy this priviledge of receding from the literal sence upon occasion, as well as the Excepter?
A58185	A Subject or Utensil of so various and inexplicable use, who could have invented and formed, but an infinitely wise and powerful Efficient?
A58185	Again, in his Book de Fato he smartly derides this fond conceit thus; What cause is there in Nature which turns the Atomes aside?
A58185	But how can the Spirits agitated by Heat, unguided by a vital Principle produce such a regular reciprocal motion?
A58185	But what rouses the Spirits which were quiescent during the continuance of the foetus in the Womb?
A58185	For if it were only for Nutrition, what need of two such great Arteries to convey the Blood thither?
A58185	For is it not absurd and incongruous?
A58185	For, say they, All the men of the World can not make such a thing as one of these; and if they can not do it, who can, or did make it but God?
A58185	How Manifold are thy Works O Lord?
A58185	How can all these things put together but beget Wonder and Astonishment?
A58185	How much more incredible then is it that Constancy in such a Variety, such a multiplicity of parts should be the result of Chance?
A58185	How variously is the Surface of it distinguished into Hills, and Valleys, and Plains, and high Mountains affording pleasant Prospects?
A58185	How would he have admired the immense subtilty( as he phrases it) of their Parts?
A58185	How, for Himself?
A58185	IN these Words are two Clauses, in the first whereof the Psalmist admires the Multitude of God''s works, How Manifold are thy Works O Lord?
A58185	If it be asked, why may not Atoms of different Species concur to the composition of Bodies?
A58185	If it be once contracted in a Systole by the influx of the Spirits, why, the Spirits continually flowing in without let, doth it not always remain so?
A58185	If these Creatures be so exceeding small, what must we think of their Muscles and other Parts?
A58185	Lastly, Why else should there be such an instant necessity of Respiration so soon as ever the foetus is fallen off from the Womb?
A58185	Now what should take away the sight of these Ships from each other but the gibbosity of the interjacent Water?
A58185	Or do they cast Lots among themselves which shall decline, which not?
A58185	Or why do they decline the least interval that may be, and not a greater?
A58185	Quanta ad eam rem vis, ut in suo quaeque genere permaneat?
A58185	The Sea, what infinite variety of Fishes doth it nourish?
A58185	Then why should some be very long lived, others only Annual or Biennial?
A58185	These are Stones, Metals, Minerals and Salts, In Stones, which one would think were a neglected Genus, what variety?
A58185	Thirdly, Let us hence duly learn to prize and value our Souls; is the Body such a rare Piece, what then is the Soul?
A58185	Thirdly, The Ear another Organ of Sence, how admirably is it contrived for the receiving and conveying of Sounds?
A58185	This Hypothesis which hath some shew of reason, for something must necessarily exist of it self; and if something, why may not all things?
A58185	This is our Duty, but alas what is our Practice?
A58185	Ubi visum praetendit?
A58185	What aileth them that they must needs bestir themselves to get in Air to maintain the Creatures life?
A58185	What beauty and elegancy?
A58185	What can we infer from all this?
A58185	What constancy in their temper and consistency, in their Figures and Colours?
A58185	What directs and moderates the motions of the Spirits?
A58185	What is the Spring and principal Efficient of this Reciprocation?
A58185	What may we make?
A58185	What would he have said if he had seen Animals of so stupendous smalness as I have mentioned?
A58185	When goods encrease,& c. what good is there to the owners thereof, saving the beholding them with their Eyes?
A58185	Why can we imagine all Creatures should be made Male and Female but to this purpose?
A58185	Why could they not have rested as well as they did in the Womb?
A58185	Why could they not patiently suffer it to die?
A58185	Why not two or three minima as well as one?
A58185	Why should there be constantly the same Parts?
A58185	Why should there be implanted in each Sex such a vehement and inexpugnable Appetite of Copulation?
A58185	Why should they be endued with the same Shape and Figure?
A58185	Why should they retain constantly the same Places?
A58185	You will ask me who or what is the Operator in the Formation of the bodies of Man and other Animals?
A58185	You will say to me, how then must our Tongues be employed?
A58185	You will say, how shall we manifest our Care of our Souls?
A58185	You will say, what Agent is it which you would have to effect this?
A58185	and what would he in all likelyhood have made had he seen these incredible small living Creatures?
A58185	avidam sanguinis& potissimum humani sitim accendit?
A58185	disposuit jejunam caveam uti alvum?
A58185	how would he have been rapt into an extasie of Astonishment and Admiration?
A58185	in all Assaults and Batteries, in all Murthers and Assassinations, in Thefts and Robberies, what Security would there be to Malefactors?
A58185	or how could he then have fed himself?
A58185	praelongavit pedum crura?
A58185	quâ subtilitate pennas adnexuit?

A58185	what Frauds and Cheats and suborning of Witnesses?
A58185	what Uncertainty in all Sales and Conveyances, in all Bargains and Contracts?
A58185	what a Subversion of all Trade and Commerce?
A58185	what hazard in all judicial Proceedings?
A58185	what shall we do for them?
A58185	who could swear that such and such were the Persons that committed the Facts, though they saw them never so clearly?
A50400	2. Who made them?]
A50400	And if the least creeping thing be within the Lords care, and receive its maintenance from him, Wherefore are ye doubtful O ye of little Faith?
A50400	Are we better than Iacob?
A50400	Are worldly riches things to be desir ● d in thine opinion?
A50400	As for Hope, where shouldest thou cast Anchor, but upon the Rock?
A50400	But the question is, Wherein?
A50400	Can a Maid forget her ornament, o ● a Bride her attire; yet my people have forgotten me days without number, saith the Lord?
A50400	Canst thou see any thing that is, and not see( as it we ● e) the pri ● t of his H ● nd upon it?
A50400	Did not God m ● ke those Souldiers and all the World out of nothing?
A50400	Did not the Lord bring them all out ● f nothing?
A50400	Do we doubt of Gods All- sufficiency, because we see no outward means?
A50400	Doest thou not do those things among thy sinfull companions which thou wouldest be ashamed to do in the sight of some grave and sober Persons?
A50400	HAth God made thy body upright, and looking up toward heaven?
A50400	How can we cross and oppose the Lord more( who made us for himself alone) than when we make our selves only to aim at our selves?
A50400	How canst thou look away from God?
A50400	How canst thou turn off the eyes of thy mind f ● om b ● holding Him, if thou dost indeed discern Him in his works?
A50400	How darest thou then do them before the Angels?
A50400	How dead is thy heart?
A50400	How far art thou from that full purpose of heart in obeying God, and cleaving to him that was in Adam?
A50400	How far in love with the Earth, and Earthly things?
A50400	How little art thou affected toward Heavenly things?
A50400	How many do preferre the things of the body above these?
A50400	How seldome hath God any praise for our understandings, our judgments, our memories, our reason, wills and affections?
A50400	How serviceable is the Horse unto us, both for speed and ease; carrying us from place to place?
A50400	How shall I do this great wickedness, and so sin against God?
A50400	How unsetled are thy affections?

A50400	Iob saith, Doth not the ear try words, and the mouth or palate tast his meat?
A50400	Is it not without its proper form?
A50400	Is not a blow in the eye worse than one upon the arm?
A50400	Is not this great blindness?
A50400	Is there not much more cause to labour by all means to make hast after our time which we have already lost, which hath long since out- run us?
A50400	It may further be demanded, Why earthly Animals were created on the sixt Day?
A50400	It may in the next place be demanded ▪ Why God, between the Creation of the Plants, and of Animals, did interpose the Creation of the Stars?
A50400	Nay, if any in zeal to Gods glory, and love to the souls of such, shall labour to do them good, what is their answer?
A50400	Nay, why art thou not ashamed to do them before the very face, and in the presence of God?
A50400	Now, is it not easier for God to be every where at once, ● han for the Sun to make such a speedy course?
A50400	Oh learn to prize thy soul, a precious Creature, and immortal Spirit; and make it appear thou makest more reckoning of it than of thy body?
A50400	That is, doth it not by tasting, try it?
A50400	The Apostle against the sin of Fornication, useth this speech, S ● all I take the Members of Christ, and make them the Members of an Harlot?
A50400	The pleasantness that is in Meat and Drink, did it not wholly come from Gods infinite sweetness and goodness?

A50400	how blind without reason, memory or understanding?
A50400	how lame would our souls be without the will and affections?
A50400	surely time goeth along with it, and never laggeth one inch behind it; is it not a madness then to call for more help to drive it forward?

A50400	〈 ◊ 〉 Angels may well hide their faces at his presence; where then shall man appear in the rags of his pollutions?
A58184	14. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire?
A58184	19 Had I not better make sure of what is before me?
A58184	A Consequent, or Inference thereupon, What manner of persons ought we to be?
A58184	A Sixth Question is, How far shall this Conflagration extend?
A58184	And if there were no need of creating more, what likelyhood that there were more created?
A58184	And what other End can be given or conceived for the remaining or restoring thereof?
A58184	And why may it not?
A58184	At what Period of Time shall the World be dissolved?
A58184	But do these errours and enormities take away the order of Nature?
A58184	But he is just, and doth not make enormous things: or will you blame Nature?
A58184	But to this may be replied, If the thing itself be unjust, how can our chusing of it make it just?
A58184	But what are any of these Pains to the Torments and Perpessions of Hell?
A58184	But what is now become of this huge Mass of Waters, equal to six or seven Oceans?
A58184	But why, I beseech you, was Prophecy withdrawn, if Coelestial Oracles were to be continued?
A58184	Containing an Answer to the Second Question, Whether shall this Dissolution be effected by natural or by extraordinary Means, and what they shall be?
A58184	Containing an Answer to the second Question, Whether shall this Dissolution be effected by natural, or extraordinary means, and what they shall be?
A58184	Doth not the Scripture condemn a Whore''s Fore- head?
A58184	For had it been miraculous, why should not the Age of the very first Generation after the Flood have been reduced to that Term?
A58184	For if the World were to be annihilated, what needed a Conflagration?
A58184	For immediately after the Flood the Age of Man did gradually decrease every Generation in great proportions?
A58184	For to what end are these Bodies curiously figured and adorned?
A58184	For what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?
A58184	For what is the depth of the profoundest Mines, were they a Mile deep, to the Semidiameter of the Earth?
A58184	For, say they, what were that but a creation of such individuals?
A58184	He that hath devoured shame, what Bridle is there left to restrain him from the worst of evils?
A58184	He will be ready thereupon thus to argue with himself, What need I take so much pains to strive against Sin?
A58184	How can it be just to annex such a Penalty as eternal Hell to a short and transient offence?
A58184	How can it stand with Infinite Goodness to make a Creature that he fore knew would be eternally miserable?
A58184	How could he sing a Requiem to his Soul, and say Peace and Safety, when the World so manifestly threatens Ruin about his Ears?
A58184	How far shall this Conflagration extend?
A58184	How far shall this Dissolution, or Conflagration extend?
A58184	How then can they come from God, who by all Mens confession is infinitely Good?
A58184	How will the unexpectedness thereof double thy Misery?
A58184	How wilt thou then be confounded and astonished, and unable to list up thy Head?
A58184	I saw some impressions as big as the Fore- wheel of a Chariot,& c. What shall we say to this?
A58184	If all, where shall we find Stowage for them?
A58184	If it be said before, he asks, Whether there were a place in it of the figure and magnitude of the Tooth, or did the Tooth make it ● ell a place?
A58184	If such things may be done by Art, why may they not also by Nature?
A58184	If the Event frustrate thy Hopes, and fall out contrary to thy Expectation?
A58184	If the first be said, he demands, Whether the Tophus, out of which they were extracted, were generated before or after the Teeth were p ● riected?
A58184	In answer hereto, I demand, what becomes of it in the open Air?
A58184	Is it not a true Proverb, Past Shame, Past Grace?
A58184	Is it not better to conceal, than to publish ones shame?
A58184	Is it not better to reverence Man, than neither God nor Man?
A58184	Is not this wise Philosophy?
A58184	It may be said, How doth this Dissolution concern us, who may perchance be dead and rotten a thousand Years before it comes?
A58184	Let me ask thee, But how if thou shouldest find thy self mistaken?
A58184	May not the Stoicks here set in, and help us out at a dead lift?
A58184	Nay, I can not see how it can consist with his Veracity not to do it; why then should any Argument from his Goodness move us to distrust his Veracity?
A58184	Now had the Creature a power of producing new ones, what need was there that there should be so many at first formed in them?
A58184	Now if it be of such eminent use to them, why may it not also be to the Learned and Noble; who, I fear me, may want such a Bridle as well as they?
A58184	Now if the Po pours so much Water hourly into the Sea, what then must the Danow and the Nile do?
A58184	Of which what Account or Reason can we give, but the motion of the Earth from West to East?
A58184	Or lastly, How the several Individuals of these kinds, shall contrary to their primitive Natures, live and dure immortally?
A58184	Or must we say with Oriegn, That they are in a mutable state too, and that Heaven will have an end as well as Hell?
A58184	Seeing then all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought we to be in all holy conversation and godliness?
A58184	Shall we accuse God the Creator?
A58184	Sir, what is this?
A58184	So that of such inflictions one may rationally demand, Cui bono?
A58184	THE Fifth Question is, At what Period of Time shall the World be dissolved?
A58184	THE First Question is, Whether there be any thing in Nature, which may prove and demonstrate, or probably argue and infer a future Dissolution?
A58184	THE Third Question is, Whether shall this Dissolution be gradual and successive, or momentaneous and sudden?
A58184	The Fifth Question answered; At what Period of Time shall the World be dissolved?
A58184	The day of the Lord shall come as a thief,& c. This answers the third Question, Whether the Dissolution shall be gradual or sudden?
A58184	The fifth Question debated, At what Period of time shall the World be dissolved?
A58184	The fourth Question resolved, Whether shall there be any Signs or Fore- runners of the Dissolution of the World?
A58184	The third Question answered, Whether shall the Dissolution be gradual and successive, or momentanouns and sudden?
A58184	Then when all the intermediate Bodies shall be annihilated, what a strange Universe shall we have?
A58184	These Bodies being found dispersed all over the Earth, they of the contrary Opinion demand how they come there?
A58184	They enquire whether the Vegetables, and Creatures endued with Sense shall all be restored, or some only?
A58184	This answers the second Question, What the Means and Instruments of this Dissolution shall be?
A58184	To him I reply, How then can he confirm the Blessed, reserving their Liberty?
A58184	To this Peyerus replies, who then forms, who delineates such monsters?
A58184	To what purpose so many words about so trivial a Subject?
A58184	V. The first Question concerning the World''s Dissolution, Whether there be any thing in Nature that may probably cause or argue a future Dissolution?
A58184	V. The first Question concerning the World''s Dissolution; Whether there be any thing in Nature that may probably cause or argue a Future Dissolution?
A58184	WHat were the instrumental Causes or Means of the Flood?
A58184	Was it not good Advice of a Cardinal( as I remember) Si nou castè, tamen cautè?
A58184	Were there ever any Shell- fish in ours, or other Seas, as broad as a Coach- wheel?
A58184	What Good comes of them?
A58184	What a sad case wilt thou be in then?
A58184	What becomes of the inclosed flame?
A58184	What can be worse than an eternal Hell?
A58184	What can we say to this?
A58184	What do I speak of that Tree?
A58184	What have we to do with it?
A58184	What horrour will then seize thee, When thy confusion shall be continually before thee, and the shame of thy face shall cover thee?
A58184	What is become of all this kind of Ophiomorphite Shell- fish?
A58184	What little advantage then can it have of the Earth opposite to it, in point of Preponderancy?
A58184	What more common Notion among the Grecians and Romans, than of an Elysium, and Tartarus?
A58184	What need I maintain such a constant Watch and Ward against my Spiritual Enemies, the Devil, the World, and the Flesh?
A58184	What proportion can there be between a transient and temporary act, and an eternal Punishment?
A58184	What reference hath the consideration of Shells and Bones of Fishes petrified to Divinity?
A58184	Where is the promise of his coming?
A58184	Whereas we see that that generation is long since passed away, and yet the end is not come?
A58184	Whether all Animals that already have been, or hereafter shall be, were at first actually created by God?
A58184	Whether shall the Dissolution be gradual or sudden?
A58184	Whether shall the Heavens and Earth be wholly dissipated and destroyed, or only refined and purified?
A58184	Whether shall the Whole World be consumed and annihilated, or only refined and purified?
A58184	Whether shall this Dissolution be Gradual and Successive, or Momentaneous and Sudden?
A58184	Whether there be any thing in Nature, which might prove and demonstrate; or argue and infer a future Dissolution of the World?
A58184	Whether to the Aetherial Heavens, and all the Host of them, Sun, Moon, and Stars, or to the Aerial only?
A58184	Whether to the Ethereal Heavens, and all the Host of them, Sun, Moon and Stars, or to the Aereal only?
A58184	Whether was God no further concerned in it, than in so ordering second Causes at first, as of themselves necessarily to bring it in at such a time?
A58184	Whether was it effected by natural or supernatural Means only?
A58184	Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?
A58184	Who can conceive such a small portion of matter to be capable of such division, and to contain such an infinity of parts?
A58184	Why should not Nature as well imitate the Horns, Hoofs, Teeth, or Bones of Land Animals, or the Fruits, Nuts, and Seed of Plants?
A58184	Why then should we tbink that the entire Skeletons of Fishes found sometimes in the Earth, had no other Original?
A58184	Why was Vrim and Thummim taken away, or rather not restored, by their own confession, after the Babylonish Captivity?
A58184	Will you lay the fault upon the Plastick vertue or power residing in the Womb or Seed, and acting those things?
A58184	You will say, Is it not better to be modest, than to be impudent?
A58184	You will say, what is Justice?
A58184	You''l demand further, if the Mediterranean evaporates so much, what becomes of all this Vapour?
A58184	You''l say, Why then do not great Floods raise the Seas?
A58184	ad Orthodoxos, if he be the Author of that Piece, where this Question( When the end of the World should be?)
A58184	and consequently, what an Objection against the truth of the Christian Religion?
A58184	and particularly, Whether at the end of Six thousand Years?
A58184	and why might they not breed them as well afterwards, as at the beginning?
A58184	and yet what depth or thickness of Vapours might remain uncondensed in the Air above this Cloud, who knows?
A58184	or the duration of ten thousand Years to those Ages of Ages?
A58184	or what communion hath light with darkness?
A58184	or whether hath he given to each kind of Animal such a power of generation, as to prepare matter and produce new individuals in their own bodies?
A58184	or, Whether they be primitive Productions of Nature, in imitation only of such Shells and Bones, not owing their Figure to them?
A58184	others as thin as a Groat?
A58184	what a delaying of his coming?
A58184	what needs this hesitancy and dubitation in a thing that is clear?)
A67686	* Am I a Sea, or a Whale?
A67686	; So that if a Supposition( which( in the Theorist''s own judgment) is easie, may be but admitted( as why should it not?)
A67686	A positive Prediction, say the Atheistical and Incredulous: But how shall it be verified?
A67686	And He being in hand with a Law of such consequence to their pretious Souls, who can question but it was worded plainly?
A67686	And That, according to other Numbers( for why should it be of a more dilated My stick significancy than the rest?)
A67686	And can we think that what we have noted already, should be done by meer accident?
A67686	And for what cause?
A67686	And how came he to be so?
A67686	And how could they help swimming with the general Stream?
A67686	And how did these Quails cover the Camp?
A67686	And how greatly and exceedingly did they prevail upon the Earth?
A67686	And how hard would it have been to have clear''d the ground of it?
A67686	And how then can he bar them from it over the Fish till after the Flood?
A67686	And how then could their ignorance in the case be wilfull?
A67686	And if it was carried about by such a Gyration, how could the face of its Waters be still and equable?
A67686	And if the Air were thick and dark then, after the grossest Particles were sunk down: what was it before, when they were but sinking?
A67686	And if they be Solid, how could they possibly have descended at last?
A67686	And let but the blustring Gales which push them upward, cease; and would they not forthwith stop?
A67686	And may not this Earth, in those regards be allowed to vie with that supposititious one und ● r debate?
A67686	And must not both of them then be in our neighbourhood at that time?
A67686	And of what were they thus ignorant?
A67686	And so I demand in the Second place; What does Moses mean, by the Host of the Heavens being finished?
A67686	And so what Waters else could they be, save those in the Clouds?
A67686	And so what a work must here be done, to make Rivers coetaneous with the Fish we speak of?
A67686	And so what will become of, 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉, all the Fountains of the great Deep?
A67686	And so what would have become of the first Covenant with Adam, in case he had stood?
A67686	And then as to the rest of those Authors he remembers; how could they understand the thing better than himself?
A67686	And then what should have guided them through this burning Tract, where was nothing of Path, or Way- mark to be seen?
A67686	And therefore what shift should they have made for Air?
A67686	And truly were it not for their Waters so copiously shed down on the Earth, how miserable would the Condition of Mankind be?
A67686	And were not these the very circumstances of that Mass, whereon the Primitive Earth was founded?
A67686	And what Water so fit for all sorts of Plants, as that which descends from the Clouds above?
A67686	And what could be mor ● agreeable to the present Earth?
A67686	And what does the Expression there import?
A67686	And what great Deeps could they be, but great deep Caverns in the Rocks?
A67686	And what other Host should belong to these Heavens, except the Fowls?
A67686	And when GOD created man did he not create this Soul of his?
A67686	And when did the lesser begin to rule the Night?
A67686	And when was it thus?
A67686	And where was darkness said to be before, but upon the face of the deep?
A67686	And who that had advanced a few Furlongs into it, could have been able to have gone forward, or to return alive?
A67686	And why should he wear the Title of that Nature for an Ornament, who is an Enemy to its excellency?
A67686	And why should they not be such Seas as we have now?
A67686	And why so?
A67686	And yet had they journied without sure conduct, whither might they have wandred?
A67686	And yet if he intended any thing else, what could it be but their Creation at that time?
A67686	And yet if they were not in being then, how could he describe the Terrestrial Paradise by them, as he does?
A67686	And yet if we attend to the first Earth''s Origination, how could it be of an Oval Shape?
A67686	But because it does not, how could the Persons whom S. Peter reproves, be wilfully ignorant of the Phaenomenon?
A67686	But had it not therefore the nature, vertue, and influence of a Sign, whereby to induce the King to believe the effect?
A67686	But how can it be so reasonable according to his Hypothesis?
A67686	But how cloud either be done without Iron Tools?
A67686	But how did Holy Church receive his Notions of that stamp, and how did she deal with him for their sakes?
A67686	But how then could Moses go up to the top of this Mountain?
A67686	But how then could it be stretched out upon emptiness and hanged upon nothing?
A67686	But is not natural Philosophy then an useful thing, and of great use, according to its Character, in the First Chapter?
A67686	But now supposing that the Caverns in the Mountains were this great Deep; how surprizingly do all these things fall in with them?
A67686	But since GOD will undertake it, why should it be thought incredible?
A67686	But then how could He rebuke them, for being wilfully ignorant of it, it being so very dark a Mystery?
A67686	But then might not the whole World be thought the most contentful dwelling for GOD the Vniversal King?
A67686	But then why should it not be so with the Earth likewise?
A67686	But there might be Days, before there was a Sun( as we have shewed) and so where''s the strength of that Objection?
A67686	But what was it that made so learned a Man to argue thus?
A67686	But whence sprang this Mistake, of the Stars Superintendency and Sovereign Dominion, save merely from the want of sound Philosophy?
A67686	But where would be Winds strong enough to heave them up such watry steepness?
A67686	But whereabouts were these to fall?
A67686	But why then should they be thought so despicable by the Theorist, as to be unworthy of a particular commemoration by Moses?
A67686	But yet let the Clouds we speak of, with- hold their moisture but a few years; and what a rueful change would then appear?
A67686	But yield it to have been but half so broad, and what Men could ever have marched over it?
A67686	But( in the mean time) if Divine Story proves not such Longaevity common to the Antediluvians; how shall other History do it?
A67686	By what means should they have come to the knowledge of that, though they would never so fain have done it?
A67686	Else how can Infant Bodies be improv''d into a parity with those of adult Persons?
A67686	Especially in such plenty, as to descend from thence in showers?
A67686	For Animals they were of so vast Dimensions, that where could they harbour but in spacious Seas?
A67686	For besides Scripture( which Iosephus was much better acquainted with than they) what else could give them information in the case?
A67686	For do not both inform us, That the City Enoch was built, and the Ark prepared before the Flood?
A67686	For grant Adam to have been planted on either side of the Torrid Zone; how should he, or his, have gone through it to the other?
A67686	For how could time have been measured out and divided into Years and Months,( as it was in the First World) without their help?
A67686	For if she was then placed, where now she is, what hindred but she might have the same Motion which now she has?
A67686	For it was to be reared upon the Waters risen out of the Chaos; and were they fit to bear such a mighty Pile?
A67686	For the Chaos in the beginning was turned about upon its own Center; else how comes the Earth to be so now?
A67686	For they were made upon the Fifth Day, says Moses, and how could there be Rivers so timely according to this new contrivance?
A67686	For though ignorant of the things they might well be; yet how could they be WILLINGLY ignorant of them?
A67686	For what can m ● re encourage so wicked a person, than to disparage and lessen GOD''s Goodness and Equity?
A67686	For when GOD said, Let there be light; where can that Light be thought to have shined more especially, than where he said before there was darkness?
A67686	For when was it that the Ark thus rested?
A67686	For who ever sewed Sackcloth to his own Skin?
A67686	Had there been fair Indications of such a Form, why did they not direct Men into an earlier Discovery thereof?
A67686	Herbs, Flowers, Trees, Fruits, Springs, Brooks, Rivers,& c. with what variety, and in what abundance does it send forth?
A67686	How close must it have stuck?
A67686	How exactly does this suite with the Hypothesis proposed?
A67686	How fond and silly the People that believe it?
A67686	How thick must it have lain?
A67686	How vain and foolish the Religion that teaches it?
A67686	If he meant only the Host of the Heavens belonging to the Earth; what was the Host of those Heavens?
A67686	If they did not, how came these Particles there?
A67686	If they were not pure, then how did GOD create Man in his own Image?
A67686	If, Lastly, it be objected; How could Waters come into these Caverns?
A67686	In what Books was this Form of the Earth recorded?
A67686	In which state of conjunction or immediate vicinity; how could they have subsisted, without preying upon, and destroying one another?
A67686	Is it not odd and monstrous strange, that we should have no more to shew for this?
A67686	Look into the inspired Story, and what a great deal of miracle shall we see, in the very Praelusories or preparatives to that mighty Inundation?
A67686	Must not that be hard to make out?
A67686	No Fire can burn for ever; for where should be a supply of Fuel to continue it?
A67686	Now how does the Apostle answer and take off this?
A67686	Now if the Earth had been drowned the Theory''s way, what need of all this?
A67686	Now what is there in all this so difficult or abstruse, as not to be intelligible?
A67686	Now where could Fishes of such prodigious greatness, move and multiply, but in vast and open Seas?
A67686	Now whither tends this?
A67686	Now why did they do this?
A67686	Or how can it be otherwise?
A67686	Or how can the two Texts, in the Theory''s sense, be reconciled?
A67686	Or how did he make Adam u ● right?
A67686	Or how did the Curse of GOD take place?
A67686	Or if it stood empty, what should have hindred the same Waters from running back into it?
A67686	Or in case they had been sufficient; yet being drawn out of the Sea, to drown the Earth, what Waters should have filled the Sea again?
A67686	Or what lively Tokens or Monuments were there of it?
A67686	Or where should they have met with Intelligence concerning it?
A67686	Or who laid the corner stone thereof?
A67686	Pursue it but on this part, and how powerful an Argument or Testimony will it be, of the Existence of a GOD?
A67686	Quid festinas, ut crudâ adhuc hyeme reviviscat& red ● at?
A67686	Secondly, What shame need there have been upon account of nakedness betwixt Husband and Wife, when there were no other People in the World?
A67686	So that besides the loss they would have been at for P ● ey, how could they have seen to direct their Motions?
A67686	So that unless a miraculous Providence superintended it, how could it be safe?
A67686	So that where could be barrenness?
A67686	Suppose they had the Direction of Stars by night; yet who, or what should have led their Caravans by day?
A67686	That the Earth might be spread, and by degrees raised upon them; Was it not requisite that they should be of a quiet and even surface?
A67686	The Sun himself can not be seen through a watry Cloud; how much less the Stars through a watry Ocean?
A67686	Though most certain it is, that a River there was in Eden; and in order of Divine Story( and so why not in order of time?)
A67686	To what length and breadth do they stretch out themselves?
A67686	Was it a pretended sign only, and a meer Cypher and Superfluity?
A67686	What abundance of Mud, Slime, and Filthiness, must every where have covered the surface of it?
A67686	What can be more clear or express?
A67686	What clearer Token would it have been of his Covenant?
A67686	What is more wonderful than the Waters standing in the Air?
A67686	What prodigiously dull and heavy Figments are these?
A67686	What stronger support of Mens confidence in it?
A67686	Whence should they have gathered it?
A67686	Where is there Fire enough to do it?
A67686	Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the Earth?
A67686	Where, if the Heavens be Fluid, how could they have kept from falling down, so long?
A67686	Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened?
A67686	Which grant them to have been, and how peculiarly were those Clouds above established( according to Solomon''s word) by GOD himself?
A67686	Who can tell what vast and mighty things they are?
A67686	Why art thou so hasty, as if it could revive and return, while rawtish Winter lasts?
A67686	Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the Dead?
A67686	Will it always hold it?
A67686	Yea, does it not in some things excel it?
A67686	Yea, how could they come down at all?
A67686	Yea, perhaps how necessary was it for it to do so?
A67686	Yet how subject is Cairo to raging Plagues, and where are greater or oftener Mortalities than there?
A67686	Yet if there were Clouds and Rain, how necessarily must the glorious Bow appear, when Showres fell in a just position to the Sun?
A67686	Yet what is that Soil, but part of what( upon the exterior Orb''s tumbling into the Abyss) must have been turned up by whole Countries at once?
A67686	and how could it possibly rise into such a Chaos, out of a Sun or ● ixt Star?
A67686	and how do they cover whole Kingdoms at once with their shady Canopies?
A67686	and that no better footsteps of its remembrance should be seen?
A67686	and to what length might they have spun out their rangeing Progress, at the shortest too long and tedious to be born?
A67686	for a pleasant dwelling place?
A67686	having no manner of Light at any time to guide them?
A67686	or rather sooner than they, as being much heavier?
A67686	or to other Mens Arm- holes?
A67686	or who hath stretched the line upon it?
A67686	or why might not the ground sink there by an Earthquake, or the like?
A67686	thereof, if thou knowest?
A67686	〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉,& c. For one might say; To what end was it?
A30490	10, 11, 12,& c. compos''d all of Gemms and bright materials, clear and sparkling, as a Star in the Firmament: Who can give an account what that is?
A30490	A shadow for a subs ● ● nce?
A30490	A very fair Prophecy: but how long will they be a drinking?
A30490	All external Nature hath continued the same without any remarkable change or alteration, and why should we believe( say they) there will be any?
A30490	All this you''ll say is well, we are got into a pleasant World indeed, but what''s this to the purpose?
A30490	An Earth founded upon the Seas, and establish''d upon the Waters, is not this the Earth we have describ''d?
A30490	And as to my Understanding, how defective is it?
A30490	And as to the Moral state of it, shall we all, on a sudden, become Kings and Priests to God?
A30490	And as to the bad Angels, who will give us an account of their Fall, and of their former condition?
A30490	And can we believe that those and all the rest were made for us?
A30490	And can we call such times the Reign of Christ, or the imprisonment of Satan?
A30490	And how little have we learned from them as to the time of that great revolution?
A30490	And is it possible to believe, that all Nature, and all Providence, are only, or principally for their sake?
A30490	And is this the great Creature which God hath made by the might of his Power, and for the honour of his Majesty?
A30490	And lastly, Why it hath stood so long immovable, and without any further diminution?
A30490	And now I mention Birds, why could not they at least have flown into the next dry Country?
A30490	And now that I do exist, from what Causes soever, Can I secure my self in Being?
A30490	And saying, Where is the promise of his coming?
A30490	And so also the Subterraneous waters would lie quiet in their Cells?
A30490	And the Prophet Isaiah connects such things with his New Heavens and New Earth, as are not competible to the present state of Nature?
A30490	And this makes the Epicurean opinion the more improbable, for why should two rise only, if they sprung from the Earth?
A30490	And to what end were they propos''d to us there, if it was not intended that they should be understood, sooner or later?
A30490	And to what purpose indeed should he premise the description of those Heavens and Earth, if it was not to lay a ground for this Inference?
A30490	And were the Flood- gates of Heaven open''d, and the great Abyss broken up to destroy such an handful of people?
A30490	And what then?
A30490	And why is not the Second Resurrection and the Day of Judgment yet come?
A30490	And with what amazement should we see it under us like an open Hell, or a wide bottomless pit?
A30490	And you are to observe here that the Apostle does not proceed against them barely by Authority; for what would that have booted?
A30490	Are not the Capacities of Man higher than these?
A30490	Are there no bowels of compassion for such an harmless multitude?
A30490	As to Iupiter, that Planet without doubt is also turned about its Axis, otherwise how shou''d its four Moons be carried round him?
A30490	At this chasm or rupture we suppose the fire would gush out; and what then would be the consequence of this when it came to the surface of the Earth?
A30490	Be it so; yet what is the ground of those allusions?
A30490	Because a Rock hangs its ● ose over the Sea, must the body of the Earth be said to be stretched over the wàters?
A30490	Besides what Fountains, if they were broken up, could let out this water, or bring it upon the face of the Earth?
A30490	Besides, What befel this Radical moisture and heat at the Deluge, that it should decay so fast afterwards, and last so long before?
A30490	Besides, When were these great Earthquakes and disruptions, that did such great execution upon the body of the Earth?
A30490	Besides, Where is the History or Tradition that speaks of these strange things, and of this great change of the Earth?
A30490	Besides, do not all Men complain, even These as well as others, of the great ignorance of Mankind?
A30490	Besides, what is it, as I ask''d before, that the Apostle tells these Scoffers they were ignorant of?
A30490	Besides, what means the disruption of the great Deep, or the great Abysse, or what answers to it upon this supposition?
A30490	Besides, who are the rest of the Dead, that liv''d after the expiration of those thousand years, if they begun at Constantine?
A30490	But alas, what appearance is there of this Conversion in our days, or what judgment can we make from a sign that is not yet come to pass?
A30490	But by whom will it be inhabited?
A30490	But how can this be applyed to the present case?
A30490	But how past away?
A30490	But how, I pray, or where, or when, do the Meek inherit the Earth?
A30490	But however, this account being admitted, how will it help us to define what the Age and duration of the World will be?
A30490	But is this the form of our Earth, which is neither regularly made within nor without?
A30490	But may not the same thing be said of Natural things?
A30490	But to know thus much only, doth rather excite our curiosity than satisfie it; what were the other properties of this World?
A30490	But to pass from the invisible World to the visible and Corporeal, — Was that made only for our sake?
A30490	But what Phaenomenon is there in Nature that proves this?
A30490	But what execution in the mean time would it do upon the Body of the Earth?
A30490	But whence do they learn this?
A30490	But where are the Inhabitants, you''l say?
A30490	But where is that necessity in this Case?
A30490	But where then, will you say, must we look for it, if not upon this Earth?
A30490	But who are these Righteous People?
A30490	But who''s wiser for this account, what doth this instruct us in?
A30490	But why did I except Angels?
A30490	But why may not this be writ in a Vulgar style, as well as the rest?
A30490	But why so, pray, what''s the humour of that?
A30490	But you will say, it may be, how does it appear, that there will be more frequent Earth- quakes towards the end of the World?
A30490	But you''ll say, When they were got thither, what would become of them then?
A30490	But, besides this, what warrant have they for this Ascension of the Martyrs into Heaven at that time?
A30490	By what Authority then shall we add this New Notion to the History or Scheme of the Millennium?
A30490	By what regular action of Nature can we suppose things first produc''d in this posture and form?
A30490	Can any body doubt or question, but all these four Texts refer to the same thing?
A30490	Can the God of Israel smell a sweet favour from such Sacrifices?
A30490	Can we imagine, in those happy Times and Places we are treating of, that things stood in this same posture?
A30490	Can we imagine, that it should lie buried for some thousands of years in deep silence and oblivion?
A30490	Can we then be so fond as to imagine all the Corporeal Universe made for our use?
A30490	Could they compress the Earth any otherwise, than by drying it and making it hard?
A30490	Declare if thou hast understanding: Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest; or who hath stretched the line upon it?
A30490	Do the Chronicles of the Nations mention these things, or ancient fame, or ancient Fables?
A30490	Do the Sun and the Wind use to squeaze pools of Water out of the Earth, and that in such a quantity as to make an Ocean?
A30490	For Fountains are broken open no otherwise than by breaking up the ground that covers them?
A30490	For otherwise, who are those Iust that shall inhabit the New Earth, and whence do they come?
A30490	For to what purpose is it made habitable, if not to be inhabited?
A30490	For what is this life, but a circulation of little mean actions?
A30490	From what off- spring, or from what Original?
A30490	Hath any writ of the Origins of the Alps?
A30490	How Mankind past out of that Earth or Co ● tinent where Paradise was, into that where we are?
A30490	How Motions are propagated there, and how conserv''d?
A30490	How could Fountains rise, or Rivers flow in an Earth of that Form and Nature?
A30490	How does it appear by any observation that the Central Fire gains ground upon us?
A30490	How does nature feed and satisfie so devouring an Element, and such a great voracity throughout all the World, without loss or diminution of her self?
A30490	How doth it include either of them, or hold them any way affixt to its Nature?
A30490	How few find the paths of Life?
A30490	How few of these Sons of Men, for whom, they say, all things were made, are the Sons of Wisdom?
A30490	How freely and unconcernedly does Scripture speak of God Almighty, according to the opinions of the vulgar?
A30490	How he still wages War against Heaven, in his exile: What Confederates he hath: What is his Power over Mankind, and how limited?
A30490	How he was depos''d: for what Crime, and by what Power?
A30490	How high shall this Annihilation reach?
A30490	How is that like to Pain, or to a doubt of the Mind?
A30490	How is that one of God''s great wonders?
A30490	How much of the Universe then will you leave standing: or how shall it subsist with this great Vacuum in the heart of it?
A30490	How preposterous would it be to ascribe such a thing to our Maker, and how intolerable a vanity in us to affect it?
A30490	How shall this World, all on a sudden, be metamorphos''d into that happy state?
A30490	How the manner and process of those miraculous changes in matter, may be conceiv''d?
A30490	How then are all former evils past away?
A30490	How they answer the several operations of the Mind?
A30490	How they stand neglected by Nature?
A30490	How unlikely is it then that these Ages were Eternal?
A30490	How will it turn to account?
A30490	How will they entertain their thoughts, or spend their time?
A30490	How would they end or finish their course?
A30490	If before, then the old difficulty returns, how could there be a Flood, if the Earth was in this Mountainous form before that time?
A30490	If fluid, as the Air or Aether, how could the waters rest upon them?
A30490	If his design was only to tell them that Mankind was once destroy''d in a Deluge, what''s that to the Heavens and the Earth?
A30490	If one met with this sentence* in a Greek Author, who would ever render it standing in the water and out of the water?
A30490	If since the Flood, where were the Waters of the Earth before these Earthquakes made a Chanel for them?
A30490	If you will not make it the seat and habitation of the Just in the blessed Millennium, what will you make it?
A30490	In Moses Bar Cepha above mention''d, we find a Chapter upon this subject, Qucmodo trajecerint Mortales inde ex Paradisi terrâ in hanc Terram?
A30490	In a Society of Saints and purified Spirits, Why should we think their converse impossible?
A30490	In what Age of the World was this done, and why not continu''d?
A30490	In what year of Rome, or what Olympiad they were born?
A30490	Is it not a more reasonable character or conclusion which the Prophet hath made, Surely every Man is vanity?
A30490	Is it not fair, to have followed Nature so far as to have seen her twice in her ruins?
A30490	Is it possible to believe that one and the same person can act or suffer such different parts?
A30490	Is there not more Misery than Happiness: Is there not more Vice than Virtue, in this World?
A30490	Lastly, The Timeing of the thing determines the 〈 ◊ 〉 When shall this New World appear?
A30490	Lastly, What is this New Jerusalem, if it be not the same with the Millennial state?
A30490	Look upon those great ranges of Mountains in Europe or in Asia whereof we have given a short survey, in what confusion do they lie?
A30490	May we not then with assurance conclude, that the World hath taken wrong measures hitherto in their notion and explication of the general Deluge?
A30490	Motion is nothing but a Bodies changing its place and situation amongst other Bodies, and what affinity or resemblance hath that to a Thought?
A30490	Must these all be given up to the merciless flames, as a Sacrifice to Moloch?
A30490	Must we not then conclude, that the common explication of the Deluge makes it impossible?
A30490	Now what hath local Motion to do with either of these two, Consciousness, or Representativeness?
A30490	Or after the Day of Judgment past, and the Saints translated into Heaven, what will be the face of things here below?
A30490	Or because there are waters in some subterraneous cavities, is the Earth therefore founded upon the Seas?
A30490	Or how they grew from little ones?
A30490	Or if the Righteous be translated and delivered from This Fire, what shall become of innocent Children and Infants?
A30490	Or if, in point of time, you was free, as to Prophecy; yet how would you adjust it to History?
A30490	Or is increased in quantity, or come nearer to the surface of the Earth?
A30490	Or that Earthquakes have been in every County, and in every Field?
A30490	Or what mark is there of Eternity that is found in this?
A30490	Or what place of Scripture can they produce, that says the World, in the last Fire, shall be reduc''d to nothing?
A30490	Or when is that Restauration which our Saviour speaks of, wherein those that suffer''d for the sake of the Gospel shall be rewarded?
A30490	Or who can make a description of that which none hath seen?
A30490	Or who shut up the Sea with doors when it brake forth, as if it had issu''d out of a womb?
A30490	Or, after they were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, naturally dead and laid in their graves, were they then regenerate by Faith?
A30490	Our Saviour says, When the son of man cometh, shall he find faith upon the Earth?
A30490	Secondly, What is it that the Apostle tells these Scoffers they were ignorant of?
A30490	Secondly, Why did it fail so much and so remarkably at the Deluge?
A30490	Shall not the Iudge of all the Earth do right?
A30490	Shall the Sun, Moon, and Stars be reduc''d to nothing?
A30490	Shall then the righteous perish with the wicked?
A30490	So when Zachary was promis''d a Son, he asketh for a sign, Whereby shall I know this?
A30490	Than the nature of Metals and Minerals?
A30490	That of the Deluge, Moses calls there Tehom- Rabbah, the Great Abyss; and can there be any greater than the forementioned Mother- Abyss?
A30490	That the Eternal Studies of our Forefathers could not effect so much as a few years have done of late?
A30490	That there was a Deluge, that destroyed Mankind?
A30490	The Earth is the Lord''s, for he hath founded it near the Seas, Where is the consequence of this?
A30490	The causes being the same, why doth not the same effect still follow?
A30490	The greater half of Mankind is made up of Infants and Children: and if the wicked be destroyed, yet these Lambs, what have they done?
A30490	The question is therefore, What will be the ordinary employment of that Life?
A30490	Their Pillars, Trophe ● s, and Monuments of glory?
A30490	Then as to the Time of this Resurrection of the Church, where will you fix it?
A30490	Then how barren, how desolate, how naked are they?
