Jeremiah20:11

Ver. 11. But the Lord is with me as a mighty terrible one] Inſtar Gigantis robuſti, Ʋt formidabilis heros. Piſc. as a ſtrong Giant and mine only champion, on whom I lean. Here the Spirit begins to get the better of the Fleſh, could Jeremy but hold his own. But as the ferry man plyes the oar, and eyes the ſhoar homeward, where he would be: yet there comes a guſt of wind that carryeth him back again; ſo it fared with our Prophet: See ver. 14.15, &c.
