Art thou in the Court? Satan walks thither too: and will fit Rehoboam with flatterers, Ahab with liar, 1Pharaoh with Sorcerers, Belshazzar with cups, Solomon with Concubines. Art thou in the Market? He is ready with oaths, with cozenages. Nay; art thou in the Temple? Thither he dares travel too: and pervert the eyes with shows, the ears with sounds, the thoughts with fancies, the senses ⟨p. 27⟩with sleep. Wheresoever, whensoever, howsoever thou art busied, he walks to thee with his temptations: and like a nimble, voluble shop-keeper interrupts with a what lack you? He hath a ship ready for Jonah, a witch for Saul, a wedge for Achan, a rope for Judas. A booty stands ready for the thief, a pawn for the broker, a mortgage for the merchant, a monopoly for the Courtier, an harlot for the adulterer.

A booty stands ready for the theefe, a pawne for the broker, a morgage for the merchant, a monopolie for the Courtier, an harlot for the adulterer.
