CHAP. V. Verſe 1. Go to now ye rich men]
THoſe rich wrethes mentioned, Chap. 2.6, 7. That blaſphemed God, and oppreſſed men. Magna cognatio ut reiſic nominis, divitijs & vitijs.
Weep and howl] Better weep here, where there are wiping-handkerchiefs in the hand of Chriſt, then to have your eyes whipt out in hell. Better howl with men, then yell with devils.
That ſhall come upon you] Gr. That are even now ſtealing upon you. [non-Latin text not transcribed].
