Not friends, alas even they are unsure: our Saviour found his Hosanna turned to a Crucify him. Doth any ask him, how he came by his wounds? Zach. 13.6. he answers, Thus was I wounded in the house of my friends, Psal. 41.9. Homo pacis mea; Yea my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, conspired against me. Thus were Paul and Barabbas served, Act. 14. The same people become ready to kill them, that were a little before ready to kill sacrifice to them. There are still innumerable such Lystrians, that are always in extremes; either they will defy, or deify. Matth. 10.36. A mans enemies shall be they of his own household. Whom to day thou lest it Fidum, a Counsellor; to morrow thou shalt find Perfidum, a Traitor. Be not too bold in trusting thy secrets to another: he that now loves thee dearly, may come to have thee deadly.
