And three things are chiefly spoken of this book. First, that it lieth not in the Throne, or in the bosom of him that ⟨p. 157⟩sitteth, or under the Throne, or that it hangeth before or behind the Throne: But it is in the right hand of God. Hereby is signified the operation or power of God, & the same most just and most mighty.1 For the book is not seen in the left hand. God therefore worketh, and containeth or ministereth all his works and judgements most holily. Secondly that book is written within and without or on the back side. For in the providence and judgements of God, all things are contained both good and evil, lucky and unlucky, sharp, and soft, sweet and sewer, visible and invisible, privy and apart, and all things in general.
