A Diſcourſe
Book II.
Sword in the Hand of their Child (though he cry for it) as foreseeing his hurt. Why then should God indulge us to our destruction; since we are truly Children, and neither know how to ask those things which are expedient for us; nor how to part with those that will be fatal to us? You may therefore lament if you please, and as much as you please, but you shall notwithstanding drink of that cup of sorrowes, which that Heavenly Physitian presents you with, and which he hath (not unadvisedly) filled so full for you.
