Ver. 4 Therefore I ſaid] i. e. I thought with my ſelf.
Surely theſe] ſc. That ſwear falſely, and refuſe to be reformed; &c,
Are poor] Of the raſcality; under law; baſe and beggarly; who neither know Gods will, nor hold themſelves much bound to do it. Of the poorer ſort in Swethland it is ſtoried, that they do alwayes break the Sabbath, ſaying that 'Tis for Gentlemen only to keep that day.
