In-Text |
The soundness of the foundation is tryed by the winde, the health of the body by hard weather, the rightness of the metall by the touchstone, and the sincerity of our graces by affliction. The reality of a Friend is seen in adversity; the faithfulnesse of the Wife, when her chastity is assaulted; and, the truth of our Christianity, when we are tempted by affliction. The noune NONLATINALPHABET, (from whence the word in my text cometh) is neerer in sound with the verb NONLATINALPHABET, which signifyeth transfodere, to pierce through. And as by piercing through a thing, it is tryed whether it be substantial or hollow; so are we pierced through with sorrows and troubles, to try whether we are sincere or hypocrites. |
