2 To lessen our affections towards this world. Whenas the measure of our dayes is contracted to an hands bredth, why should the earthy desires of our hearts be so much enlarged? Could we at our pleasure add day to day and year to year, it were good policy to joyne house to house, and field to field; but to what purpose are many goods, when (with the rich fool in the Gospel) we have perhaps but a few hours, whilest thou livest, thy dayes are but as the bredth of thy hand, when thou diest, thou shalt have no more ground than the length of thy body, why so greedy in grasping large revenews and vast possessions? |
2 To lessen our affections towards this world. Whenas the measure of our days is contracted to an hands breadth, why should the earthy Desires of our hearts be so much enlarged? Could we At our pleasure add day to day and year to year, it were good policy to join house to house, and field to field; but to what purpose Are many goods, when (with the rich fool in the Gospel) we have perhaps but a few hours, whilst thou Livest, thy days Are but as the breadth of thy hand, when thou Dies, thou shalt have no more ground than the length of thy body, why so greedy in grasping large revenues and vast possessions? |
