Psalms148:3
Verſe. 3. Praiſe yee him Sun and Moon] Theſe do, after a ſort, declare the glory of God, Pſal. 19.1, 2. Habak. 3.3. not with mind and affection, as if they were underſtanding creatures (as Plato held) but by their light influences admirable motions and obedience, whereby quaſi mutis vocibus, by a dumb kind of eloquence, In Epimeni[illegible: 1 letter] ſaith Nazianzen, they give praiſe to God, and bid check to us, for our dulneſs and diſorders.
Praiſe him all yee ſtars of light] A light then they have of their own (beſides what they borrow of the Sun) which they with-hold at Gods appointment, Iſa. 13.10. and influences they have which cannot bee reſtrained, or reſiſted, Job. 38.31, 32.
