197. GOD.
God is more here than in another place,
Not by His essence, but commerce of grace.
198. THIS, AND THE NEXT WORLD.
God hath this world for many made, 'tis true:
But He hath made the World to Come for few.
199. EASE.
God gives to none so absolute an ease
As not to know or feel some grievances.
200. BEGINNINGS AND ENDINGS.
Paul, he began ill, but he ended well;
Judas began well, but he foully fell:
In godliness not the beginnings so
Much as the ends are to be look'd unto.
