He was not taken with Pebbles, his nobler soul slew higher, and was fixt on Pearls. It is Gods favour that the Subjects of the King of Heaven desire rather than his preferment; like him that preferr'd Alexanders kiss before a great sum of money, given by Alexander to another. Thus Faith looks upward on God, and the things of God, and acts accordingly. |
