So Clear a Light, that he sees into all corners. The eyes of God are in every place,1 beholding the evil and the good. He searcheth more narrowly then the beams of the Sun: He sees Bribery in the Office, Adultery in the Closet, Fraud in the Shop, though the Pent-house makes it as dark as a room in Bedlam.

So Constant a Light; that though the Sun be variable in his Course, sometimes shining bright, often Clouded: yet God is without change as the Moon, without Eclipsing as the Sun, without Setting as the Stars.
