though hee had no sinne or inward corruption to betray him, how suddenly was he thrown down from his excellency by Satan with a poore and slender temptation? how strangely did a creature of so high and noble a constitution exchange God himselfe for the fruit of a tree, believe a Serpent before a Maker, and was so miserably cheated as to suppose that by casting away Gods Image, he should become the more like him? Who could have thought that David a man after Gods owne heart, with one miscarrying glance of his eye should have been plunged into such a gulfe of sinne and misery as he fell into? that so spirituall and heavenly a soule should be so suddenly overcome with so sensuall a temptation? that so mercifull and righteous a man should so greatly wrong a faithfull servant as he did Vriah, and then make the innocent blood of him whom hee wronged, a mantle to palliate and to cover the wrong, and make use of his fidelity to convey the letters and instructions for his own ruine? Who could have thought that Lot, so soone after he had been delivered from fire and brimstone, |
