There was a holy man that rarely heard of other men's crimson sins, but he usually covered the place with his tears, considering that the seeds of those very sins was in his own nature. In thy nature thou hast that that would lead thee with the Pharisees to oppose Christ; and with Judas, to betray Christ; and with Pilate, to condemn Christ; and with the soldiers, to crucify Christ. Oh, what a monster, what a devil wouldst thou prove, should God but leave thee to act suitable to that sinful and woeful nature of thine!
