Amos 5:8

The seven stars — A constellation, whose rising about September was usually accompanied with sweet showers. Orion — Which arising about November brings usually cold, rains and frosts intermixt very seasonable for the earth. The shadow of the earth — The greatest adversity into as great prosperity. Dark with might — Changes prosperity into adversity. That calleth — Commands the vapour to ascend, which he turns into rain; and then pours from the clouds to make the earth fruitful.
