But now may some man say, How shall the Church do in the wilderness? how shall she live? how shall she be sustained? There is no tilling, no sowing, no planting, there groweth no corn, there is nothing to be had either for food or raiment. Here it is answered, that God prepared a place for her, where she should be fed; God took up an inn for her: she wanted neither food nor raiment in her persecutions and troubles. Which teacheth, that God doth always provide for his own, even in great miseries, scarcities, famines, banishments and persecutions; as sometimes he did for Elijah in the time of dearth, and for the children of Israel in the wilderness.

The time wherein the Church was fed in the wilderness, was a thousand two hundred and threescore days: that is, during the time of her persecutions, as before hath been showed, chap. 11. verse 2.
