Sacriledge cursed with a curse. [ 254]
IT was usual in former times, when any thing was given to the endowment of the
Church,* 1.1 it was done with a curse against all such as should ever presume to alie∣nate,
or take them away; Whether Mans curse shall take hold on such Church-rob∣bers,
is wholly in the disposition of God, and a secret; But sure it is, that God him∣self
hath openly cursed all those, how many, or how great soever they be that rob
him of Tythes and Offerings. Yea, cursed them with a curse,* 1.2 redoubling the
words, not without great cause, but emphatically to signifie that they shall be
cursed with a strange curse, such a curse, such a signal curse, that he that hears of it his
ears shall tingle, and his knees smite one the other.
