Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
If we take stranger in the first sense for an enemy, then the word Passed signifies as much as invaded, and may well be translated to a military motion: No stranger or enemy passed; that is, none matched among them, or through their ⟨p. 85⟩Land, to disturb, or plunder them; when God is said to give Laws to the Sea, or set it bounds which it should not pass; this imports that the Sea like an enemy would march through the earth, and overwhelm all, unless bridled by a Divine decree.
If we take stranger in the first sense for an enemy, then the word Passed signifies as much as invaded, and may well be translated to a military motion: No stranger or enemy passed; that is, none matched among them, or through their ⟨p. 85⟩Land, to disturbe, or plunder them; when God is sayd to give Laws to the Sea, or set it bounds which it should not passe; this imports that the Sea like an enemy would march through the earth, and overwhelme all, unlesse bridled by a Divine decree.
But if we take Stranger in the second sense, for an Idolater, or a man of unsound Principles, then, No stranger passed among them, is, such were not received, and embraced by them, nor admitted among them.
From the first Observe.
