John Trapp on John 6:15

Verſe 15. Take him by force] Superſtition will needs obtrude upon Chriſt will-worſhip, whether he will or no, and deſpite him with ſeeming honours, as the Lycaonians would needs have ſtollen a ſacrifice upon Paul and Barnabas; and the Salvages of Nova Albion, upon Sir Francis Drake, and his company, at their parting with them. They had ſet it on fire ere we were aware, faith he; we laboured by all means to with-hold, or withdraw them, but could not prevail; till at length we fell to prayers, and ſinging of Pſalms, The world encompaſled by Sir Francis Drake, p. 81. whereby they were allured immediately to forget their folly, and leave their ſacrifice unconſumed, ſuffering the fire to go out; and, imitating us in all their actions, they fell a lifting up their hands and eyes to heaven, as they ſaw us to do.
