Proverbs30:21

Verſ. 21. For three things the earth is diſquieted] Such trouble-towns are odious creatures, the places where they live, long for a vomit to ſp[illegible: 1 letter]e them out. As they live wickedly, ſo they dye wiſhedly, there is a good worlds-riddance of them, as there was of Nabai, and of thoſe in Job 27.23. with 15. who were buried before half-dead; being hiſſed and kickt off the ſtage of the world, as Phocas was by Heraclius.

And for four which it cannot bear] The very axle-tree of the world is even ready to crack under them, the earth to open and ſwallow them up.
