Jeremiah13:17
Ver. 17. My ſoul ſhall weep in ſecret places] Good men are apt to weep; Et faciles motus mens generoſa capit. Good Miniſters ſhould be full of compaſſionate tears, weeping in ſecret for their peoples unprofitableneſs, and their danger thereby. The breaſt and right ſhoulder of the ſacrifice belonged to the Prieſt; to ſhew that he ſhould be a breaſt to love, and a ſhoulder to ſupport the people, in their troubles and burthens.
