Thirdly , They are alike in their original! formation. This ,lob urgeth in the text upon his owne heart; Did not he that made me in the womb make him ? He that made the Matter , made the fer- rant. And he that fafhioned them, fafhioned them alike in the womb. Matters and fervants were not made by feverai! hands. Did the God ofheaven make Matters and-Greatmen,Kings and Princes, and did force inferiour power make fervants , plebeians and the Poore ? No ; ( faith rob) He ibat made kiln, made me.
