THE LXXVIII. LEGACY. When thou seest wicked men follow unsatisfying things with rest∣lesse desires and thou de∣sirest content.

WHen thou seest the wicked to bee carried with restlesse desires, hungrying and thir∣sting after those things which satisfy them not, and thou desirest content, apply, Isai. 65.13, 14. Thus saith the Lord, behold my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry; behold my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty, be hold my servants shall rejoyce, but yee shall be ashamed: Behold my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but yee shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howle for vexation of spirit.
