In-Text |
So the discreet Christian must rather preuent the committing of an offence, then craue pardon for the committing of it, as Cato the Censor said of Aulus Albinus in Aulus Gellius, he must rather forth of his industry expect a reward with worthy Nehemiah, then forth of his negligence looke for an indulgence with the vnthrifty seruant, Salomons counsell to a surety is fit for a sinner, If thou haue stricken hands with a stranger, and art insnared, make haste to deliuer thy selfe, but his method of safety is more notable, Touch not the hand, become not surety for another. |
