And again thirdly, 1What shall a King do for us?
- 1Obs. 3.
How great an evil is it to a people then, whose complaints ⟨p. 339⟩are;1 what doth a King not do against us? Musculus upon the forenamed Psalm, (those that read his Comment shall find that Note in it) saith he, You are not to put your trust in Princes that are the children of men, they are but men; yea, but what shall we say to those that are cruel oppressors that are rather like Tigers and such kind of wild beasts among men, that seem not to be children of men,2 how shall we put our trust in them? Oh! it's a sad condition indeed that a people is in, when they have this cause to complain, when they shall have cause to cry out and complain, Oh how! how doth he run from place to place, plundering, spoiling, breaking, tearing, destroying wheresoever he comes? That people is in a sad condition, what shall he do for us? Nay, what doth he not do against us continually? and all this, because we have not feared the Lord. That's the third Note.
