God hides from man the reck'ning day, that he
May fear it ever for uncertainty;
That being ignorant of that one, he may
Expect the coming of it every day.
143. ANGELS.
Angels are called gods; yet of them, none
Are gods but by participation:
As just men are entitled gods, yet none
Are gods of them but by adoption.
144. LONG LIFE.
The longer thread of life we spin,
The more occasion still to sin.
145. TEARS.
The tears of saints more sweet by far
Than all the songs of sinners are.
146. MANNA.
That manna, which God on His people cast,
Fitted itself to ev'ry feeder's taste.
