Page 121 - We see in needle-works and embroideries, it is more pleasing to have a lively work upon a sad and solemn ground, than to have a dark and melancholy work upon a lightsome ground : judge therefore of the pleasure of the heart by the pleasure of the eye. Certainly virtue is like precious odours, most fragrant when they are incensed or crushed : for Prosperity doth best discover vice, but Adversity doth best discover virtue.

Page 304 - For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion 16 So then, it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
