Verſe 37. [non-Latin text not transcribed]. For yet a little while] Tantiſſùm, tantidùm, adhuc pu[illegible: 1 letter]i[illegible: 1 letter]lum. A little, little, little while. Gods help ſeems long, becauſe we are ſhort.

Now the juſt ſhall live by faith] In the want of feeling: he ſhall reſt upon God in the fail of outward comforts, as the believing Jews were to do in the Babyloniſh captivity, Habak. 2.4. quoted here by the Apoſtle, though with ſome variation of words.

Baldwin the French Lawyer, that had religionem ephemeram, as Beza ſaith of him,M[illegible: 3 letters]h.

Theodorick an Arrian King, did exe[illegible: 1 letter]edingly affect a c[illegible: 1 letter]rtain Deacon, although an Orthodox. This Deacon thinking to ingratiate,Euſeb. and get preferment, became an Arrian. Which when the King underſtood, he changed his love into hatred, and cauſed the head to be ſtruck from him, affirming, that if he kept not his faith to God, what duty could my one expect from him.
