Yea, grant the principal, because the public, of it be past: yet as Market-folks returning from Market will be talking of their Markets, as they go by the way, and be casting up of ⟨p. 38⟩their penny-worths, when they come home, reckon what they have taken, and what they have laid out, and how much they have gotten: So should we, after we have heard the word publicly, confer privately of it with others; at least meditate on it by our selves, and be sure to take an account of our selves, how we have profited that day by the word that hath bin spoken unto us, and by other religious exercises that have bin used of us.
