Eccles. 12.1. 1 Remember now thy Creator in the daies of thy youth, while the evil daies come not, nor the yeers draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them.
Solomon to restrain children and youth from the vanities of their Age, propounded to them a double Antidote: First, The knowledge of Gods approaching Judgement, whereto he will bring them for all the evils of their youth, Chap. 11. verse 9. whence he inferred two Corollaries; 1. An exhortation to put away youthful passions and lusts. 2. The vanity of childhood and youth, Chap. 11. v 10. Secondly, The remembrance of their Creators in the days of their youth, Chap. 12.1. The copulative And, implieth a connection upon the former, as the Addition of another remedy like the former.
