But in a just quittance for their strong-haled wickedness, they draw on their own destruction with Cords, and damnation, as it were with a Cart-rope. 2So those Funcs peccatorum, that Solomon speaks of, shall be rewarded: His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the Cords of his sins.
