They Ride.
This phrase describes a vice compounded of two damnable ingredients; Pride, and Tyranny. It was a part of Gods fearful curse to rebellious recidivation, Deut. 28. that their enemies should ride and triumph over them; and they should come down very low, under their feet. It is delivered for a notorious mark of the great Whore of 1Babylons pride, that she rides upon a scarlet-coloured Beast. Saint Paul seems to apply the same word to oppression. 1. Thes. 4. That no man oppress his brother. The original 2[Greek or Hebrew]; to go upon him, climb on him, or tread him under foot.
