I. B. Here then I enquire. If the circumstances of Time and Place, be at the pleasure of him that useth a thing lawful in it self, doth it follow thereupon, that the subject matter and manner be so too? If God allow any thing to be done, of necessity there must be a time and place, when and where it may be done. Even when and where there is just occasion of the Act. It is to be observed, ⟨p. 129⟩that as here, so in the Proposition it self Mr. G. slideth from the subject matter, and manner, to circumstances only. Is not this fainting?
