Verse 7. I will come and heal him.]

Stupenda dignation: A won∣derfull condescending: that the Lord of Lords should vouchsafe* 1.1 to visit a poor 〈◊〉〈◊〉, and restore him to health. It was a great favour that Q. Elizabeth did Sir Christopher Hatton L. Chancel∣lour (who died neverthelesse of grief of minde) that, when she had broken his heart with a harsh word, she was pleased to visit and* 1.2 comfort him, though it were all too late. What was it then for* 1.3 the Lord Christ in the shape of a servant, to come down to the sick servants pallet? Hunniades, when he felt himself in danger of death, desired to receive the 〈◊〉〈◊〉, before his departure: And would in any case (sick as he was) be carried to the Church* 1.4 to receive the same, saying that it was not fit, that the Lord should come to the house of his servant, but the servant rather to goe to the house of his Lord and master.
