Numbers22:23
23 And the ass saw the Angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand, and the ass turned aside out of the way, and went into the field: and Balaam smote the ass, to turn her into the way.
Which Balaam sa[illegible: 1+ letters] not, because God withheld his eyes as he did the eyes of Danie[illegible: 1+ letters]s companions, Dan. 10. 7. It is a truth, which meer Philosophers own, that when God withdraws his concourse or help from any of his creatures, they cannot perform their natural acts and offices, the eye cannot see, as Gen. 19. nor the ear hear, nor the fire burn, as Dan. 3.
Marginal references: 2 Pet. 2. [illegible: 1 word] Jud. 11.
