THE wonder (a)] There also hee calleth man a great miracle, a venerable, honorable crea∣ture. (b) Concerning the] Or, against the deities. (c) The title] The greeke saith: A pray •…•…g song of Dauid, that the house was built after the captiuity. Hieromes translation from the
Hebrew hath no title, and therefore the Greekes call it 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, Vntitled.
