A fifth and last thing to be observed in the Creation, is,1 that all the Creatures were made exceeding good, whether you consider them singly and apart, or all of them together. As from God, that is, goodness it self, nothing can come but absolutely good. For the further sealing up of which Doctrine, we have the testimony of God himself, both in every special: God zsaw the Light, that it was good: and so in the rest: and in the general conclusion of all, God alooked upon all that he had made, and behold, it was exceeding good.
