Isaiah7:11

Ver. 11. Ask the ſign of the Lord] not of any other God, to whom thou art addicted.

Thy God] From whom thou haſt deeply revolted: but of whom thou mighteſt upon thy return be graciouſly re-accepted.

Ask it either in the depth] This was a fair offer to ſo foul a ſinner: but all would not do; no though he ſhould have had a ſight of Heaven or of Hell for a ſign; And yet Bellarmine thinketh, that one glimpſe of Hell were enough to work upon the moſt hard-hearted ſinner in the world, and to make him yield to any thing.
