Hen Erelam Behold their Erel, or their Ariel chap. 29.1, 2. that is, their Altar, ſhall they (i. e. the Aſſyrians) cry without, ſc. in mockery, twitting the Jews with their Sacrifices as no way profitable to them.Mr. Clarkes Eng. Martyrol. So the profane Papiſts, when they murthered the poore Proteſtants at Orleans, ſang in ſcorn, Judge and revenge my cauſe O Lord: Others, Have mercy on us Lord.
