2. Rule, 1The book of Providence is full both Page and Margin, God hath been adding to it sundry new Editions; and like children we are in love with the golden covering, the Ribbons, Filleting, and the Pictures in the Frontis-piece, but understand little of the Argument of Providence, Psal. 107.43. Who so is wise, and will observe these things, 2even they shall understand the loving kindness of the Lord, Job 32.7. I said (saith Elihu) days (things of Providence) ⟨p. 104⟩shall speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom: God is worthy to be Chronicled.
