Retribution
Psalm 7:15
He made a pit, and dig it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.


The story of Phalaris's bull, invented for the torment of others, and serving afterwards for himself, is notorious in heathen story It was a voluntary judgment which Archbishop Cranmer inflicted on himself when he thrust that very hand into the fire, and burnt it, with which he had signed to the popish articles, crying out, "Oh, my unworthy right hand!" but who will deny that the hand of the Almighty was also concerned in it?

(William Turner.).
