In-Text The Devil grounded all his Glory on the deluded Imaginations of his Followers. To make them Idolaters of his false Deity; he first possess'd them with an erroneous Conceit of their own Greatness. To persuade them to offer Incense to the Statu's they had rais'd in his Temples, he first taught them to adore the Idols he had set up in their Minds; Honor, Riches, Pleasure, are the three great Gods he places on the Altar of their Hearts; to these, he makes them sacrifice all their Thoughts, all their Affections, their Body, their Soul, their Eternity, their All. He persuades them, that all their Glory consists in worldly Greatness, all their Happiness in an affluence of temporal Riches, and their chief Beatitude in a full enjoyment of sensual Satisfactions.
