Matthew Poole and continuators on Ecclesiastes 1:15

15 That which is crooked cannot be made streight : and that which is wanting cannot be numbred .

All our knowledg serves only to discover our diseases and miseries, but is o[illegible: 1+ letters]t it self utterly insufficient to heal or remove them; it cannot rectify those confusions and disorders which are either in our own Hearts and Lives, or in the men and things of the world.

To wit, in our knowledg, and in order to mans compleat satisfaction and felicity.

We know little of what we should or might know, or did know in the state of Innocency, or shall know in the future Life.
