210. SINNERS.
Sinners confounded are a twofold way,
Either as when, the learned schoolmen say,
Men's sins destroyed are when they repent,
Or when, for sins, men suffer punishment.
211. TEMPTATIONS.
No man is tempted so but may o'ercome,
If that he has a will to masterdom.
212. PITY AND PUNISHMENT.
God doth embrace the good with love; and gains
The good by mercy, as the bad by pains.
213. GOD'S PRICE AND MAN'S PRICE.
God bought man here with His heart's blood expense;
And man sold God here for base thirty pence.
