And therefore when we see extraordinary gatherings of the Clouds, we should take instruction, lest we provoke the Lord to send, or cause them to come for correction. The Clouds drop down many good Lessons and admonitions, and if they are not ⟨p. 517⟩attended to, the next thing they drop is a Rod or Correction; He causeth it to come, whether for correction, Or for his Land.
