PARALLEL PASSAGES.
(Vol. viii., p. 372.)
Adopting the suggestion of F. W. J., I contribute the following parallel passages towards the collection which he proposes:
1. "And He said unto them, Take heed and beware of covetousness, for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth."—Luke xii. 15.
"Non possidentem multa vocaveris
Recte beatum; rectius occupat
Nomen beati, qui Deorum
Muneribus sapienter uti,
Duramque callet pauperiem pati;
Pejusque leto flagitium timet."—Hor. Carm., lib. IV. ode ix.
