Isaiah59:9
Ver. 9. Therefore is Judgement far from us] Here followeth, the complaint of the godly party, together with their confeſſion: this they knew well to be the readieſt way to get off with comfort. God, ſay they here, hath neither avenged us on our enemies, nor ſhewed us favour: he letteth our foes deal with us, as we have dealt one with another.
We wait for light, but behold obſcurity] We promiſed our ſelves a better eſtate: but the matter mendeth with us, quoth that Martyr, as ſowr ale doth in ſummer.
