And this was it that procured him ſo much ill will, and ſuch a generall alienation from neareſt friends and allyes.

And the reproaches of them that reproached thee] Wicked men eftſoons ſet their mouths againſt Heaven, and fall ſoul upon God himſelf. This, David (and the ſon of David) could not endure, nec aliter amare didicit, as Baſit once anſwered thoſe that blamed him for appearing ſo farre for his friend,Chryſoft. lib[illegible: 1 letter] 2. d] ſacerdot[illegible: 1 letter] to his own great danger.
