Ezekiel26:10
Ver. 10. Thy walls ſhall ſhake] With the noiſe of one charret, walls and windows ſeem to ſhake: what then with the rattle of ſo many? Me thought I heard the noiſe and fright that ſhall be at the laſt day, ſaid one that was at the taking of a Town in the Low-countries. The fragour and terrour was ſo great ſay,A Lapide. the Turkiſh hiſtories (ſpeaking of a bloody battel betwixt Amurath the third, and Lazarus Deſpot of Sernia) that the Angels in heaven (ſo they are pleaſed to Hyperbolize)Turk. Hiſt. amazed with that hideous noiſe, for that time forgat the heavenly hymnes wherewith they alwaies glorifie God.
When he ſhall enter into thy gates] As our Henry the eighth did into Tournay a City of France, which was ever counted ſo impregnable that this ſentence was engraven over one of the gates, Jannes ton me a perdu ton pucellage, i. e. Thou haſt never loſt thy maiden-head.
