1. There are Dreams for Error, wrought by the mere illusion of Satan: whom God once suffered to be a lying Spirit in the mouth of 400. Prophets. He working upon mans affections, inclinations, and humours, causeth in them such dreams, as seduce them to wickedness, and induce them to wretchedness. They write of one Amphiaraus, an Argive Soothsayer, that by a dream he was brought to the Theban voyage; where Hiatu terrae absorbetur; he was swallowed up of the earth. lSo Pharaohs Baker was encouraged to hopeful error by a dream. So was that monstrous host of Midian overthrown by a Dream of a mBarley cake, that hit a Tent, and overwhelmed it: which was interpreted the Sword of Gideon.
