And this (I say) you shall find fulfilled. So God hath dealt by the world. So by particular Kingdoms, and Nations in the world. So by particular Towns, and Countries in a Kingdom. So by particular Families in a Town. And so by particular persons in a family.

Thus God hath dealt with the World, He hath brought near the Kingdom of Grace, and Mercy, and free-remission to the World, before ever the World did make after it. When the whole World had sinned in the fall, and lay in wickedness, and never thought of returning unto God; God so loved the world, 1that he sent his only begotten Son to them. When Adam did not think of Christ, nor the world in him; the Lord gives out a promise, The Seed of the Woman shall break the Serpents head. 2Thus mercy, and grace made it's approach towards the world, before ever the world did seek after it.
