      THE

      Lay-Man’s

      SERMON

      UPON THE

      LATE STORM;

      Held forth at an Honest

      Coffee-House-Conventicle.

      Not so much a Jest as ’tis thought to be.

      Printed in the Year 1704.

These words could have no Connexion with the Text, tho' they are joyn'd with them in the same Verse, if it were not meant of his being slow to Anger, to his own People, and Terrible to the Heathen World, and this being spoken as an Expression of his being not easily provoked as to his Church, the Subsequent part of the Verse tells
