Chapt. 67 VNto the Lord the Church doth pray his fauours still to see And that with his sweet countenance they might enlightned be ALl her suites are to this end made that Gods wayes might be knowne

their enemies victorious in each place GRanting and finding this most true Dauid exhorts therefore All men to praise and magnifie the Lord for euermore Chapt. 69 HEre Dauid as a type of Christ we typified find Complaining praying feruently with zeale and griefe of mind IN cruell sort he vexed was they vinegar and gall Did giue him for his meat and drinke and mockt him eke withall KNow here their punishments set downe where all his foes are durst Euen traitors all whereof Iudas was chiefest and the worst LYing in great affliction he gathers heart at last And offers prayse● vnto God for all his goodnesse past MVch more regarded is such prayse then any sacrifice Whereof vnto th' afflicted soules great comforts may arise NOw therefore he prouokes the heauens the earth and ●ke the Seas

MICROBIBLION OR THE BIBLES EPITOME In Verse Digested according to the Alphabet that the Scriptures we reade may more happily be remembred and things forgotten more easily recalled By Simon Wastell sometimes of Queenes Colledge in Oxford Bonus Textualis Bonus Theologus A good Diuine hee 's counted still In Scripture text that hath good skill Psal 1.2 Blessed is he that delighteth and meditateth in the law of God day and night LONDON Printed for Robert Mylbourne and are to be sold at his shop at the signe of the Greyhound in Paules Churchyard 1629. TO THE RIGHT Honorable his singular good Lord Sir William Spencer Knight Baron Spencer of Wormeleighton and to his Honorable Lady Simon Wastell wisheth encrease of honour in this life and eternall happiness in the world to come RIght Honorable Excellent is that sentence which Agapetus wrote to Iustinian the Emperour long agoe viz It is the crowne of Fi●●ie which adornes a Potentate for riches 〈◊〉 with vs and glory vanisheth saith hee 〈◊〉 that renowne but that care of leading 〈◊〉 liues according to Gods will hath the promise of a Reward euerlastingly permanent and of a Crowne immarcessible And such hath beene Gods mercy to your Honours that he hath accumulated both internall and externall blessings vpon you adding to your temporall greatness spirituall graces which make your Honors far more amiable in Gods sight then any terrene though transcendent felicitie can make you admired in the sight of men The very Ethnicke could say Nobilitas sola est atque vnica virtus If the glimmering light of their purblind intellectualls could appropriate such like Panegy rickes onely to their Morall and Socraticall vertues how great are those prayses which are due to those Theologicall and heauenly graces which by a more diuine Spirit are breathed into the soules of Dauids Saints on earth Wherein though your Honors endowments haue not the meanest portion they not being in you meane but euen Heroicall yet lest I should seeme as the manner of some Dedicatory Epistle is to make my way to your Honour by a Parasiticall salutation of all your resplendent vertues in my passage and lest I do therein offend your right Noble and magnanimous disposition whose property it is not to be very much affected with those your deserued praises and because also the action in mee would bee cozen-German to base flat●erie I therefore passe them by in silence whereat my mind shall neuer cease to afford the due tribute of perpetuall admiration May it therefore please your Honor as formerly it pleased your worthy Father my good Lord now deceased to patronize this little worke which with all submission I present vnto your Honours Sure I am that those manifold fauours which I vnworthy I from time to time haue receiued from him and you may challenge requitall which to be performed by mee is impossible and to be testified by so small and slender a Dedication is in a manner indecent as being in no waies proportionable to your large and copious demerits But I am somewhat incouraged to make it trauell vnder your Honours Patronage I know that in all ingenuous and heauenly begotten soules there is an affection in some sort analogical to God himselfe of accepting the desire for the deed Receiue it therefore I beseech you it is performed as I could not as I would 〈◊〉 your Honour looke to the matter of that booke it is an Epitome of Gods Oracles and containes some of that aqua coelestis or liuing waters of life and grace If to the manner of handling the matter it is briefe and Alphabeticall and metricall for the better and surer memorie Plaine also it is because the pure and spirituall word needs not the mixture of mans depraued braine and also because the simplest Christian may reape the greater benefit when all things are done to edification Thus presuming vpon your Honorable protection intreating the Almightie that in blessing hee would blesse both your Honors and honorable Progeny I humbly take my leaue Your Honors euer to be commanded SIMON WASTALL To the Christian READER IT is the speech of all almost and the complait of the most sincere that these our last and worst dayes are dayes very wicked dayes very dangerous and therfore surely very dangerous because very wicked yet if we looke to the meanes of knowledge and of piety neuer time enioyed larger or better Great is Gods mercy small our amendment And where 's the fault why our owne consciences doe condemne vs as delinquents who will not receiue that which Gods mercy would afford vs. Christ may now take vp his Elegies against England as once against Ierusalem How often O England England would I haue gathered thee as a henne gathereth her chickens vnder her wings but thou wouldst not I haue sent my Ambassadors to declare my good will and pleasure to thee and my loue which I reserue for thy people if ye would returne but thou wouldst not I haue often knockt at the doore of thy heart for entrance that thou mightest bee enriched with my Spirit but thou wouldst not I haue offred thee that aske and thou shalt haue knocke and I will open vnto thee but thou wouldst not I haue exhorted thee to crucifie those carnall lusts which fight against thy soule but thou wouldest not I haue beene crucified dead and buried that by beleeuing in mee thou mightest haue life but thou woldest not I haue ascended from death to life that by my example thou mightst rise from the death of sin to the life of grace here and to glory hereafter but for all this thou wouldst not These or such like words might Christ iustly vse to the most part of the men of England whose ignorāce is almost grosse affected and whose knowledge except it bee practised will but augment their condemnation for this is condemnation that the light is come into the world amongst vs and wee loue darkenesse more then light We know indeed our Masters will but will not do it Or if we haue but so much of the gold of the Sanctuary as wil tip our tongues guild ouer our externall cariage we thinke we haue enough whereas the heart was requisite in euery sacrifice and that being first formed and giuen vs of God first should be reformed first and giuen of vs to God againe But alas most men now content themselues to liue in this our Church which hates Idolatry and popish superstition and thinke this will bee sufficient to flit them to heauen after death whereas poore soules they ought as well to looke to the truth of their profession as to their profession of the truth lest he who is the Way the Truth the Life do for their want of truth deny them the way to euerlasting life But if these men or any other would in sinceritie see footing into the wayes of Gods commands it is then necessary necessitate á priori that they first know what it is which God
