Blessings turn'd into Curses. [ 262]
WHat Tully reporteth amongst his wonders in Nature,* 1.1 that in one Coun∣try,
In agro Narniensi siccitate lutum fieri, imbre pulverem, Drought causeth
durt, and rain raiseth dust, may be truly applyed unto us, that abundance of grace
hath brought forth in us abundance of sin; and as sin took occasion by the Law to
wax more sinfull, so iniquity hath never been more rife amongst us, but through the
rifenesse of the Gospell. So far is it, that we are become true Israelites with Nathanael,
or but half, nay almost Christians with Agrippa, that we are rather down-right A∣theists,
no Christians at all.
