God often in the Scripture sets forth his power and Majesty, by the trembling of Heaven, and the shaking of the earth, the vanishing of Mountains, and the bowing of perpetual hills, the professed humble subjection of the most eminent parts of the Creation. The Sea shall fly as afraid, the Rocks as weak rend and crumble, the Heavens be darkened, the Mountains skip like Rams, and the little hills like young sheep, Psal. 114. 4. [Greek or Hebrew] [Greek or Hebrew] [Greek or Hebrew] Aeschylus. Justin. in apol.

The Heavens shook, the Earth dropped at the presence of God, Psal. 68. 8. The Almighty Creator, holds the whole frame of the building in his own hand, and makes what portion he pleaseth, and when he pleaseth, to tremble, consume and vanish before him. Though many things are not capable of sense and reason, yet he will make them do such things as Sense and Reason should prompt the whole subjected Creation unto, to teach that part their duty who were endued therewith. A servant is beat, to make a child learn his duty.
