the weakness whereof is the cause of Earthquakes: but he that fixeth his estate on • Flatterers sharp tongue, will put an Earthquake into it, and soon run to ruin. Our Chronicles report of Canutus, that when his Flatterers styled him Ruler of Sea and Land, he commanded his chair of Estate to be brought to the Sea-side: and when the waves beat on him, he cried, I command you to return: the sturdy waters, (scornful of such a control, as the Devils were of the sons of Sceva, iJesus we know, but who are ye? God we know, calming floods, quieting the winds, but who art thou?) beat on him more furiously: then, lo saith Canutus, what a goodly God I am; and behold my command▪ convincing his flatterers. Oh that some strong West-wind would rid our Land of these kLocusts.
