Though the mills of God grind slowly, yet they grind exceeding small;[793:3]

Though with patience He stands waiting, with exactness grinds He all.

Retribution. (Sinngedichte.)

Man-like is it to fall into sin,

Fiend-like is it to dwell therein;

Christ-like is it for sin to grieve,

God-like is it all sin to leave.

Sin. (Sinngedichte.)
