Job41:3
Verſe 3. Will he make many ſupplications unto thee?] As conquered Captives uſe to do; witneſſe Benhadad, 1 King. 20.32. and Teridates King of Parthians, who being brought priſoner to Nero, thus beſpake him; I come unto thee as unto my God, [non-Latin text not transcribed]. Dio in Neron. and will henceforth worſhip thee as I do the Sun in heaven; I will be whatſoever thou ſhalt appoint me; for thou art my Fate and Fortune, &c.
Will he ſpeak ſoft words unto thee?] Verba byſſina; as unto his Lord and Maſter. An elegant and pleaſant Proſopopaeia? No, his ſtomack is too great, to ſtoop ſo low.
