John Trapp on Jeremiah 7:12

Ver. 12. But go ye now] Non paſſibus ſed ſenſibus. Summon the ſobriety of your ſenſes before your own judgments, and conſider what I did of old to Shiloh, a place no leſs priviledged then yours; and wherefore I did it: and be warned by their woes. Alterius perditio, tua ſit cautio. Seeſt thou another ſhipwrackt? look well to thy tackling. Reaſon ſhould perſwade, and therefore lodgeth in the brain: but when reaſon cannot perſwade, example ſhould, and moſtly will.
