In-Text |
But stay, proud Creature, God and man are never so friends, as to become fellows. Abraham, to be sure, was God's Friend, Isay 41. 8. and yet he knew his distance, as appears in that humble conference, Gen. 18. 27, 30. when a superior vouchsafes to become a friend, he expects for his condescention, to be observed and complyed withal from him whom he obligeth. This cultura potentis amici, husbanding of a potent friendship, is no easie matter. |
