Hyacinth, or Following Christ.
Hyaeinth, or Following Christ.
Say that the Christian hath met with some gilded pill of corruption; some poisonous doctrine, yet plausible to flesh and blood. Let him search this Garden for Hyacinth, or So•sequium, Tornesol: an herb, that duly and obediently follows the Sun. Do thou follow the Sun of righteousness: 1and let his bright beams guide thy course: who hath promised to teach all those, that with an humble heart, and earnest prayer seek it at his hands. Follow the Sun, and he will bring thee where he is, to heaven, at the right hand of his Father. Let no wandering Planet err thee; but adhere to the Sun with a faithful imitation.
