L. VIVES.

THere (a) shalbe no place for] In this life, many men stumble at the good fortunes and prosperity of the badde, and the sad misfortunes of the good; They that know not that fortunes goods are no goods at all, (as the wicked doe beleeue they are) doe wonder at this. But indeede, the wicked neuer enioy true good, nor doth true euill euer befall the good. For the names of goods and euills, that are giuen to those things that these men admire, are in farre other respect then they are aware of, and that makes▪ their fond iudgements con∣demne the ordering of things. But at the last Iudgement of CHRIST, where the truth of good and bad shall appeare, then shall good fall onely to the righteous, and bad to the wick∣ed: and this shalbe there, vniuersally acknowledged.
