CHAP. XLVII.

* 1.1NEither allow I their diuision, for they say that al lightnings are per∣petuall or finite, or prolonged. The perpetuall are those whose signification appertaineth to the whole life, comprehending not only one thing, but a succession of all that should happen from the beginning of life vntill the end. Such are the lightnings which are made at such time as a man entereth into the possession of his patrimonie, or into some new condition of life; or when as a Citie changeth her gouern∣ment. The finite haue a certaine day and terme assigned. The prolonged are those whose threats may bee deferred, but not wholly preuented or extin∣guished.
