Octogessimus octavus mirabilis annus:* 1.1 So that the 〈◊〉〈◊〉 Spaniards said, Christ was turned Lu∣theran. The like was done by the windes for Theodosius, in that famous battle against Maximinus. The souldiers that were then present told us, saith St Augustine, that the windes took their darts,* 1.2 as soon as they were out of their hands, and drove them violently upon the enemy: as for those that were cast at us by the enemy, they were with like violence carried back upon their own bodies, Hence sang Claeudian the Heathen Poet in this sort concerning 〈◊〉〈◊〉,
O 〈◊〉〈◊〉 dilecte Deo, cui 〈◊〉〈◊〉 aether, Et conjurati veniunt ad classica venti.
