James3:6
Verſe 6. A world of iniquity] A new found world. Not a city or a countrey only, but a world of iniquity, a ſink, a ſea of ſin, wherein there is not only that Leviathan, but creeping things innumerable.
The courſe of nature] Gr.Pſ[illegible: 1 letter]l. 104.46. The wheel of our nativity. Their breath as fire devoureth, Iſa. 33.10.
And it is ſet on fire of hell] That is, of the devil (called elſwhere the gates of hell) as the holy Ghoſt (on the other ſide) ſet on ſire the Apoſtles tongues with zeal, that flame of God, Cant 86. Act. 2.3. Evil ſpeech is the devils drivell: a ſlanderer carries the devils pack.
