If therefore at any time the like happen unto us, that the Lord maketh us subject to the reproachful taunts of men, when as we would privily escape or avoid his judgement, let us not marvel: But even as Jonah here gently answereth, and neither murmureth nor resisteth, so also at the length with the true spirit of meekness, let every of us acknowledge our sins, when they be reproved, yea, even although children be our Judges, or if any of the most base or contemptible riseth against us, let us suffer it patiently, and let us know this kind of Controllers happeneth unto us by the providence of God. Now it followeth.
