But now that's observable, Though they thought they had agreed deal of Reason for themselves, yet after they had once smarted, and they found indeed that there was that oppression upon them after they had a King and these Princes more than ever they were under in their lives, now was a time that Hosea could speak freely to them, and say in the Name of God, Where is your King, and those men that you were so earnest for? what good have you got? For it is observable though they were never so eager upon having a King, yet if you read the story in Samuel, when God did but thunder from Heaven, Oh! then we have sinned; and when they were under oppression, then Hosea could speak freely and plainly to them, Where is your King? and where are these men?
