Nehemiah3:20

He burſt out in a heat (ſo the Heb.) being angry both at himſelf and others, that had done no more: and in an holy fume,Se accendit. finiſhed quickly; kindling himſelf from other mens coldneſs, and quickning himſelf from their ſlothfulneſſe.
—Sic Caeſar in omnia praeceps Nil actum credens,Lucan. dum quid ſupereſſet agendum, Fertur atrox—
