Mic. VI. 9. The Voice of the LORD, crieth unto the City.
Certainly, you will not expect, that I should spend any time in proving, That there is a VOICE of the glorious GOD, in all that He does, in the World. All the Works of Creation, and all the Works of Providence, there is a Voice of the glorious GOD in them. He speaks in all ⟨p. 10⟩that He does. And there is no place, where their Voice may not be beard. O Deaf we, if we hear it not! — That Voice, — O Love, O Admire, O Adore, the glorious One, who does all these things. O Fear this GOD, and give Glory unto Him!

'Tis very sure; In the Works wherein the glorious GOD goes out of the Ordinary Road, or, His Extraordinary Dispensations; In these, His Voice becomes very Notable; and most inexcusable are they who Regard not the Works of the Lord, nor the Operation of His Hands: He shall destroy them, and not build them up.
