Chapter. and he died] Among the many observations of Noah, some make him parallel to Adam in many particulars, wherewith we may fitly conclude his story; they were alike in honour and dishonour; in honour, for they were both of them publique and common fathers of two worlds, Adam of the old world before the flood, Noah of the new world after it; they both were absolute Monarchs of the whole Earth, none had a foot of land but under them, and by a derivative right from them; they both were honoured by the unreasonable creatures; to Adam they came to receive their names, to Noah they came to be received for safetie: and they were alike in dishonour, in sinne and in shame; both sinned by the palate, Adam by an unlawfull act in tasting of the forbidden fruit, Noah by exceeding measure in that which was lawfull: and for shame, they were both shamefully naked, and were charitably covered, Adam by God, Noah by his sonnes: to which may be added that both having slept, they both knew when they awaked what was done unto them.
