If a Livie or a Guicciardine, or such extensive and voluminous authors had had this story in hand, God must have made another world, to have made them a library to hold their books, of the making of this world.

God did no more but say, Let this & this be done; and Moses doth no more but say, that upon God's saying it was done.
