Psalms71:20

Verſ. 20. Thou which baſt ſhewed me great and ſore troubles] Auguſtias magnas & malas, and haſt thereby taught me, verſ. 17, Quae nocent, docent.

Shall quicken me again] And this is one ſingular height of thy righteouſneſs, that thou carryeſt thy people thorough ſo many deaths; and cauſeſt them to aſcend from the loweſt ebbe of affliction, to the higheſt pitch of comfort. Stoicks aſcribe ſuch Occurrences to Fate, Epicures to Fortune, but David to God alone.
