Again, As they who are of a wrangling and unquiet disposition, will never sit down in a suit; when by the examination of some witnesses, they have brought the matter to a trial, and are ⟨p. 562⟩cast, yet this doth not satisfy them, they will have their writ of error,1 and bring the matter about again, in another Court. Thus (saith Job) as if the Lord were resolved, this suit should never have an end, He reneweth his witnesses against me. When I think all is concluded and agreed between us, I am as much to seek as ever: he brings all about again. So that after all my travel, I am as far from an end, as I was at the beginning, I am where I was, and am like to continue there, for I see the Lord renewing his witnesses against me still.
