Isaiah47:7
7. And thou sayest , I shall be a Lady for ever: so that thou diddest not lay these things to thy heart, neither didst remember the latter end of it .
Thy cruel usages of my People, and the heavy Judgments which thou hadst reason to expect for them.
Of that Lady, or of Babylon, and her Glory and Empire, or of thy self; here being a sudden change of the person, of which I have noted many examples in this Prophet. The sence is: Thou wast besotted with the sense of thy present felicity, and didst not consider, as thy duty and common discretion obliged thee, what might and was likely to [illegible: 1+ letters]efall thee afterward; thou didst neither expect a change nor prepare for it.
