The third circumstance.
When Christ came to the place, he looked up and saw Zaccheus As Zaccheus ran before to see Christ, so Christ followed ⟨image 38⟩after to see Zaccheus. Satan for his part went about 1like a roaring Lyon, seeking to devour him, but Christ for his part goeth about like a good shepherd, minding to save him. And although Satan a strong armed man, had 2taken some possession in the hart of Zaccheus, yet Christ a stronger then he cometh unarmed, and taketh from him his harness wherein he trusted, and rescueth the spoil.
