Ezekiel19:7

Ver. 7. And he knew their deſolate places] He had made them deſolate and bereft them of their right owners whom he had devoured, and then ſeized them for himſelf. Some read and render it, He knew their deſolate widowes, i. e. He firſt kild up their husbands, and then lay with the widows: the men he devoured, the women he defloured: ſuch work this wicked Prince made, till God took him in hand; as he did alſo the other three here lamented, of whom may be ſaid, as Plutarch doth of Galba, Otho & Vitellius Emperours, that they were like Kings in a tragedy, which laſt no longer then the time that they are repreſented on the ſtage.
