Word of diminution, Earthly, One hath well observed the elegancy of the Antithesis, Thesauri pretium opponit vilitati involucri, What more pretious then this treasure? What more vile then earthen vessels? Indeed the Candlesticks by which as generally the Churches, so eminently the Bishops of those Churches are to be understood, are said to be golden, and yet here these vessels are called earthen; both may well stand together, Golden in respect of the solidity of their doctrine, purity of their conversation, and yet earthen in regard of the frailty of their condition. |
