Jeremiah2:28

Ver. 28. But where are thy Gods that thou haſt made thee?] Thou haſt ſure no need of my help: Quiſi tu hujus indigeas patris. See the like, Judg. 10.14. with the Note there.

For according to the number of thy Cities are thy gods] Enough of them thou haſt, and near enough. The Papiſts alſo have their Tutelar-Saints, to whom they ſeek more then to God himſelf. And when the Ave-Mary-bell rings, (which is at Sun-riſing, Noon, and Sun ſetting) all men in what place ſoever, houſe, field,Spec. Europ. ſtreet or market, doe preſently kneel down and ſend up their united devotions to heaven, by an Ave-Maria.
