Psalms88:3
Verſ. 3. For my ſoul is full of trouble] Hypotypoſis hominis luctuoſiſſimè affecti. Here we have the lively picture of a man under bitter affliction. Extraordinary wiſe he was, and extraordinary troubles he had. None out of hell ſuffer more than Gods deareſt children. This good man felt himſelf in the ſuburbs of hell, as it were.
And my life draweth nigh unto the grave] Or, Ʋnto hell; The ſame word ſignifieth both, becauſe death is hells harbinger; and would be ſo to the [illegible: 2 letters]ect, but for Chriſt.
