See how little Jonah is ashamed of his sin• all the world smarted for it, and yet he sleeps, as if he should say, neither the winds blowing, nor the waters •ossing, nor the ship reeling, nor the wares casting, nor the mariners ¹crying, with all this stir, should move him, waken him from his sleep, or raise him from his sin. Now Jonah might say, I was a sleep, and all might have perished for me, if one God had not helped more then all the rest, for Jonah slept, but God waked, and called to the winds and the waters saying, wash him, but you shall not drown him: fear him, but you shall not kill him: whip him, and when you have whipped him, send him to me, that I may send him to Nineveh. It seemeth that Jonah was fast a sleep, when the winds over him blowing, and the water under him tossing, the ship about him reeling, the mariners by him crying, the wares overboard in casting, yet Jonah felt nothing, but slept as if there were no stirring.

See how litle Ionah is ashamed of his sin• all the world smarted for it, and yet he sleepes, as if he should say, neither the winds blowing, nor the waters •ossing, nor the ship reeling, nor the wares casting, nor the mariners ¹crying, with all this sturre, should moue him, waken him from his sleepe, or raise him from his sinne. Now Ionah might say, I was a sleepe, and all might haue perished for me, if one God had not helpt more then all the rest, for Ionah sleept, but God waked, and called to the windes and the waters saying, wash him, but you shall not drowne him: feare him, but you shall not kill him: whippe him, and when you haue whipt him, send him to me, that I may send him to Niniuie. It seemeth that Ionah was fast a sleepe, when the windes ouer him blowing, and the water vnder him tossing, the ship about him reeling, the mariners by him crying, the wares ouerboord in casting, yet Ionah felt nothing, but sleept as if there were no sturring.
