1My brethren, when we perceive God withdrawing himself in any degree from us, Oh let us stir up our selves and ⟨p. 415⟩cry mightily, as the Church doth, Jer. 14.9.2 O leave us not, the Church gives a shrike as it were, she saw that God was going, as God is said, first to go to the threshold; God goes by degrees from a people, and Jeremiah a holy Prophet, he saw God going from them; Carnal hearts they do not perceive how God withdraweth himself from a people by degrees, but those that are acquainted with the mind of God and search into the word, they are able to discern God withdrawing himself from a people, and they cry, Lord leave us not, if thou be gone all is gone.
