We render it as an Adverb; others, as a Verb, Thou returnest, and showest thy self wonderful upon me. The sense is the same in ⟨p. 557⟩both, noting the continued or repeated acts of his affliction.1 Thou art still and still wonderful against me; As if Job had said, Lord, Thou no sooner ceasest, but thou beginnest again, thou no sooner takest off thy hand, but I feel it again; if thou grantest me a little breathing, and withdrawest from me, thou returnest again; if thou givest over the chase a while, thou pursuest it again, with as loud a cry, with as fierce assaults as ever; my sorrows know no intermission, 2my pains know not only no period, but no pause, I have storm upon storm, grief upon grief, here much and there much, I am all ways and everywhere again afflicted, though already half-dead with affliction.
