Psalms74:17
17 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth : thou hast made summer and winter.
Thou hast fixed the bounds, both of the habitable World in general, so as the Seas, though they do encompass and assault them, yet they shall never be able to remove them, and of all the Countries and People upon Earth, whom thou hast confined to such bounds as thou see[illegible: 1+ letters] fit. And as this Clause of the Verse, sheweth God's Power and Government over all places, so the next Clause displays his Dominion over all times and seasons. And both together are fitly alledged as a Motive to God, that he would at this time take Care of his poor People, and restore them to their antient Land and Borders, in which he had been pleased to set them.
