Jeremiah12:9

Ver. 9. Mine heritage is unto me as a ſpeckled bird] As an owle ſay ſome, that ſoveth not the light; as a Peacock ſay others, proud and inconſtant, all in changeable colours, as oft changed as moved. God that could not endure Miſcellane ſeed, nor linſy-woolſy in Iſrael, can leſſe endure that his people ſhould be as a ſpeckled bird, here of one colour, and there of another; or as a cake not turned, Hoſ. 6.4, &c.
