Joel2:24

Verſe 24. And the floors ſhall be full of wheat] Such fatneſs ſhall Gods footſteps drop, that your houſes ſhall be full of all precious and pleaſant riches: Prov. 24.4. ſo that you ſhall, (as rich men love to do) de pleno tollere acervo. Onely take heed you have not, as that rich fool aenimam triticeam, a wheaten ſoul, that your abundance get not within you, as the Phariſees did, Lvke 11.41. (ſo that they did not more poſſeſſe, then were poſſeſſed by what they had) that ye ſet not your hearts upon your riches, Pſal. 62.11. [non-Latin text not transcribed].

—difficile eſt opibus non [illegible: 1 letter]radere mentens.Mortial.

and the fats ſhall overflow.] There ſhall be plenty of all things, (as Prov. 3.10.) the fruits and effect of that rain promiſed before. And doth not God daily turn water into wine, when of water falling upon the vine, and concocted by the heat of the Sun, he produceth the grape whence wine is preſſed?
