1Rewards and punishments. He that at all times and in all places adorneth virtue with rewards, and draweth the wicked to punishment, he must needs rule all mankind with his providence: But God yieldeth more pleasant successes and events to the good, which live with moderation and soberly, even to those that are without the Church, and punisheth heinous offences with grievous punishments in this life; yea, when men wink at them: Therefore God ruleth and governeth the whole world by his providence. The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: 2he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked. And men shall say, Verily there is fruit for the righteous; doubtless there is a God that judgeth in the earth. He that nurtureth the heathen, shall not he punish? Like unto this is the heathen Poets Axiom; Such things as a man doth, such an end and fruit thereof surpriseth him.
