Job39:24

Verſe 24. He ſwalloweth the ground with fierceneſſe] He runs over it as faſt as if he did ſwallow it up at a draught.Terram pra cur. ſus celeritate, ebibere, & epotare videtur. Merc. In fremitu & commotione. An hyperbolical Metaphor.

With fierceneſs and rage] Or, With commotion or unquietneſs; there is an elegancy in the Original that cannot be engliſhed.

Neither believeth he that it is the ſound of the trumpet] He is ſo over-joyed, when that ſign is given to begin the battle. Others, he cannot ſtand ſtill when he hath once heard the ſound of the Trumpet.
