    This line is a cento of three places in Job, and it passes through three different texts of them without a mark. The infant of one day is Job xiv. 4 as the Septuagint reads itnot one, even if his life be but one day upon the earth — which the Vulgate does not say at all, its verse asking only who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean. Andrewes uses the phrase in his own voice in a Pentecost sermon and names his authority there: infans unius diei super terram, as the Seventy read it. Augustine had given it in the same Latin, nec infans cuius est unius diei vita super terram. The middle clause is Vulgate verbatim and from another chapter — Job xxv. 5, stellæ non sunt mundæ in conspectu ejus, with ipsæ added and ejus turned to Tuo. The last clause is Job iv. 18 and is not the Vulgate either: that reads in angelis suis reperit pravitatem, found depravity, where this has respexisti insipientiam, folly, which is the Hebrew's word and the Authorised Version's. Whether he took it from a Latin made out of the Hebrew or turned it himself is not settled. The plate's figure covers none of the three: Job xxv. 3 is is there any number of his armies? Kept as printed. Brightman's margin supplies the two outer references and none for the stars. And Job xiv. 4 is the verse this book cites rightly at printed 323 and misnumbers at 406 as xiv. 14 — quarried here a third time, with no page marking the other two.

    he cannot answer him one of a thousand. The verse numeral is the 1853 editor's, supplied in his own brackets, and is kept in them.

  • Job. xiv. 2printed 261. 23
  • Job. xiv. 4printed 297. 21identified

    The volume proves another of its own misprints, and this is the fourth time. Here *Psal.* cxxx. 3 is cited correctly for if thou shouldest mark iniquities; at printed 40 the same verse is cited *Psal.* cxxx. 30, in a psalm that has eight verses. Both stand as printed. The pattern is now well established — printed 25 confirming the reading at 409, §17 confirming Job. xiv. 4 against Part III's xiv. 14, §37 confirming Is. xxxviii. 15 — and it is worth more than any conjecture, because the corroborating witness is the book itself.

    who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one

  • Job xiv. 4printed 406. 3identified

    The reference here is wrong, and the volume corrects it eighty-three pages earlier. That I was conceived in unclean seed wants Job xiv. 4 — who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one — where the plate prints xiv. 14, which is if a man die, shall he live again? Printed 323 cites the same verse rightly, as Job xiv. 4. The corroborating witness is the book itself, and both places stand as printed.

Job 31

  • Job. xxxi. 1printed 43. 21

    I made a covenant with mine eyes

  • Job. xxxi. 1printed 351. 27

    I made a covenant with mine eyes — but the plate widens it twice: the covenant is made cum sensibus meis, with all the senses, and its object is ut ne cogitem quidem de malo, that he should not so much as think of evil, where Job's own concern was narrower.

    Job's oath of clearing: if I covered my transgressions as Adam

  • Job. xxxi. 40printed 351. 23

    Job's self-curse turned into the petition for daily bread by one word. Closing his oath of innocence Job says let thistles grow instead of wheat, and cockle instead of barley; the plate sets pro tritico ne proveniat urtica, pro hordeo ne lolium — let them NOT. The curse a man called down on himself if he lied becomes the fourth petition.
