I answer; Though God worketh all the world over, yet God worketh in some parts of the world in a more eminent manner. God worketh so in some places, as if he did work no where else: All places are the work of God by Creation, and God worketh in all places by his providence. The works of creation would run to ruin, if God did not sustain, and as it were keep them in reparation by the works of providence, yet as God worketh in some men, and by some men, more then in, nnd by others, some ⟨p. 363⟩persons are to him as his right hand, he calls them forth to be greatly instrumental to him. So he worketh in some places, and nations, and by some places and nations more then he doth in or by others. God is a free Agent, he worketh where he will, and he pitcheth upon some special places, and persons, (according to the pleasure of his own will) to work in, and by, more then many others. And seeing according to this Interpretation, The left hand where he is said to work so eminently, is the North.
