Jeremiah3:4
Ver. 4. Wilt thou not from this time cry unto me] And is not this extream impudence? haſt thou a face thus to collogue? Hypocritis nihil impudentius: hypocrites are impudent flatterers: they would, if they could, cozen God of his heaven.
Thou art the guide of my youth] i. e. My dear husband, Prov. 2.17. Fair words are light-cheap, and may make fooles fain. But God is not to be ſo courted and complemented.
