Againe, godly mens knowledge is sufficient to direct them both generally, and in particular duties: whereas the knowledge of the vngodly is only generall.
Lastly, the knowledge of the one continueth with them unto the end; but the knowledge of the other leaveth them in the end. Therefore is the knowledge of the godly for the clearness, certainty, and sufficiency of it, compared to the Sun: and the knowledge of the wicked to the1 lightning, which is only for a sudden flash, and when it is gone, men are more dim-sighted then they were before. Thus we see one difference in their judgements.
