Isaiah24:17
Ver. 17. Fear and the pit and the ſnare are upon thee] Metaphora à venatoribus, a Metaphor from Hunters, elegantly expreſſed in the original by words of a like ſound. God hath variety of plagues at command: his quiver is full of ſhafts: neither can he poſſibly want a Weapon to beat his Rebels with. If the Amorites eſcape the Sword, yet they are brain'd with Hail-ſtones, Joſh. 10. If the Syrians get into a walled Town, yet there they are baned by the fall of a Wall upon them, 1 King. 20.
