Gods Omniscience. [ 1679]
PIerius in his Hieroglyphicks wittily resembles God by the picture of an eye
standing upon the top of a staff,* 1.1 the staff being an Emblem of 〈◊〉〈◊〉power an••
scepter wherewith he governs; And the eye as an expresse of his all-searching
Knowledge, whereby he dives and pierceth into the secrets of all hearts: Thus
it is that no man can entertain a sinfull thought, though slumbring upon his bed;
nor effect a wicked purpose, though bolted in his lodging when the windows
are closed and the Curtains drawn,* 1.2 but ad Lunae lumina visus erit, the eye of
Heaven sees it, knows it, and writes it down in the book of Accompts, yea and at
the last day will summon and warn that Soul to a reckoning for it.
