Psalms37:6
Verſ. 6. And he ſhall bring forth thy righteouſneſs as the light] God will ſo oyl thy good name that infamy ſhall not ſtick to it. Dirt will ſtick upon a Mud-wall, not ſo upon Marble. But ſay thou be aſperſed, and denigrated by calumnies, and contumelies caſt upon thee, and thou lye under them for a time, as the earth doth under the darkneſs of the night; yet as the morning ſuddenly ariſing driveth away that darkneſs, ſo ſhall God clear up thy wronged innocency; and as the Moon wadeth out of a Cloud, ſo ſhalt thou get over all thy troubles in this kind, or any other; it ſhall be with thee as it was once with Cato (whom Seneca calleth, the lively picture of Vertues) who was thirty two times accuſed in open Court, and as many times cleared and abſolved.
And thy judgements as the noon-day] At the Day of Judgement howſoever, if not ſooner; then there will be a Reſurrection as well of names as bodies.
