It is absolutely decreed that Devils shall be damned; were it not a fruitless thing in them by prayers tears and 1endeavours to seek to alter it? It is also simply decreed that the soul of man shall be immortal: Is it not a labour in vain for any man to use means that his soul may be annihilated? It is ordained that the sun shall rule the Day and the Moon the Night: that the one shall finish his proper course in a year, the other in a month: Would not a mans endeavour to make an alteration in these things be unprofitable and ridiculous.
