Isaiah34:4
Ver. 4. And all the hoſt of Heaven ſhall be diſſolved] Inuſitati ſupplicii atrocitas ſic deſignatur. So great ſhall be the ſlaughter of the Nations, that the heavenly bodies ſhall ſeem to be ſenſible of it, and amazed at it, and the whole heaven to be rolled together as a ſcroll, leſt it ſhould be forced to behold it. In a bloody fight between Amurath the third, King of Turkes, and Lazarus Deſpot of Servia, many thouſands fell on both ſides: the Turkiſh Hiſtories, to expreſs the terrour of the day, vainly ſay, that the Angels in Heaven amazed with that hideous noiſe, for that time forgot the heavenly hymnes wherewith they alwayes glorifie God.
