Habakkuk3:15

Verſe 15. Thou diddeſt walk thorough the ſea &c.] q. d. Shall they thus prevaile by iniquity? and did they carry the ball upon the foot till they had gotten the goale? Hath ever any waxed fierce againſt God, and proſpered, Iob. 9.4? I trow, not. Thou that of old didd'ſt walk through the red ſea, did'ſt tread it, or,Pſal. 56.7. foot it, and that moſt ſwiftly, as if thou had'ſt had thy change of horſes.

thorow the heap of great waters] which thou laid'ſt on heaps for thy peoples ſake, ſo that, inſtead of being ſwallowed up, they were preſerved thereby: Thou Lord, I ſay, haſt many times ſince, (when all hope failed) opened a faire way for thy ſervants to eſcape out of greateſt dangers: and ſo I truſt thou wile againe, when they moſt ſtand in need of thine heavenly help. Cum res eſt in acie novaculae &c. God will be ſeen of his in the Mount.
