Jeremiah2:32

Ver. 32. Can a maid forget her ornaments?] Not lightly or eaſily, as minding them many times more then is meet, and then their ornaments are but the neſt of pride: and whilſt they think to gain more credit by their garments then by their graces, they are much miſtaken.

Yet my people have forgotten me dayes without number] i. e. Time out of mind: when as God ſhould be remembred at every breath we draw, ſith from him we have [non-Latin text not transcribed], life and breath, as the Apoſtle ſaith elegaintly, Acts 17.25. But into ſuch a dead Lethargy hath ſin caſt moſt people, that God is forgotten by them, add his Service neglected.
