Daniel5:28

Ver. 28. Peres, thy kingdome is divided and given to the Medes] This had been long before prophecyed of Iſa. 13.17. yea Gen. 9.25. And now Chams poſterity felt his fathers curſe. Nimrod the founder of Babylon came of Cham: Madai or the Medes were of Japhet, and Elam or the Perſians, of Sem. Gods forbearances are no quittances. Let all wicked ones look to it. What is Mene but death? Tekel but Judgement? Peres but hell or utter ſeparation from God, and all to be paſſed thorough by their poor ſouls, if timely courſe be not taken? Hear this all ye drunkards, who glory in drinking the three Outs, &c.
