Toby. It is no marvel though the Tyrant Herod was troubled, for he feared the loss of his kingdom, which by right belonged not to him.1 But what needed they of Jerusalem to be troubled with such news? Had they not greater occasion to rejoice? For besides that Messiah was promised to them, at whose hands they looked for full & perfect restoring of all things: it is to be doubted, but they had rather have a King of their own Country and blood, then such a stranger and Tyrant as Herod was.
