1For certainly the work of Deliverance and Reformation may stick long upon the hands of them that are to be the Deliverers and Reformers of a people: Yea, you may observe it sometimes, God hath more trouble (to speak after the manner of men) to deliver a people from their Deliverers, then he hath to deliver them from the enemies of their deliverance; yea, though the work be entrusted in the hands of a Moses and an Aaron, God hath enough to do to keep them from spoiling of it: a great part of the Deliverance, is to deliver a people from their Deliverers, before he deliver them by them. So little is God beholding to second Causes. You shall see it in the Instances or Causes.
