From the 10th. verse of this Chapter to the end of the 19th, we have showed you, that Job layeth down the cause of his former bitterness and complainings against his day. At the 10th. verse he is angry because it hindered not his conception and his birth; And at the 13th. he giveth a further cause of that cause, For then (saith he) I should have been at rest. Now being about to prove that in death he should have found rest, he doth it by an induction of particulars, As if he had thus said. Where all sorts of persons, even they who have been hardest wrought, and most troubled in the world, find rest; there surely I should have found rest also, But in death, persons that have been hardest wrought and most troubled in the world find rest; therefore there I should have found rest too. Now for the proving of this assumption, that in death all sorts of persons find rest, even those who have been most travailed, ⟨p. 411⟩tired and worn out in the world: To prove this (I say) he gives instance in divers, almost all ranks, degrees and conditions of men.
