Or Thirdly, which the wisest men, with all their care, and power, and diligence cannot secure from danger and hazard; there is a wakeful eye of providence, that will take care in all such cases, especially, in the last. For, when men have done their utmost, to keep the foot from crushing us, and the wild beasts from destroying us, but canno•, then the care of God appears most in doing it. And in the case of that double necessity, when good men have done their best to keep us safe, but cannot; and bad men have done their worst, to expose us unto, and leave us in danger, we may, and must leave all to God, who naturally takes care of all creatures, and is the Saviour of all men (both as to temporal and eternal salvation, 1 Tim. 4.10.) especially of them that believe.
