Not that there can be an adequation betwixt the guilt of sinne which is infinite, and our mourning which how great soever can be but finite; but that there should be some analogy and proportion between the measure of the one and the other. Not that this is required per modum solutionis, as a payment of the debt, to which our sins obliege us, that must be done by Christs blood, not our tears. Could we weep an Ocean, it were not a satisfactory compensation to God for the least offence, much lesse for great faults; but that hereby we may expresse that we have a sense of sin in some sort proportionable to the haynousnesse of it. |
