[ 653] The Worlds Opposition, no obstacle to a child of God.
ALciat hath it in one of his Emblems,* 1.1 That a dog then barketh most, when
the Moon is at the fullest; whether it be by some special influence that it
then worketh in the dog, or whether it be occasioned by the maculaes, or spots in
the Mo••n, represented unto him in the form and shape of another dog; let the
dog bark never so much,* 1.2 yet the Moon walks her station securely through the
Heavens: And thus, though Tyranny, persecution, afflictions, bark never so much at
the just man, yet he doth not stay to take up a stone at every foul mouth'd dog that
barks, he makes not a stand in every cross way that he meets with, but rides on
through the storm, and comes to his journeys end in safety, Opposition is no obsta∣cle
to him.
