The love of God is like himself 'equal, constant, not capable of augmentation or diminution; our love is like ourselves 'unequal, increasing, waning, growing, declining. His, like the sun, always the same in its light, though a cloud may sometimes interpose; ours, as the moon, has its enlargements and straightenings.
