Not to your selves; lLet thy fountains be dispersed abroad, saith the wisest king: communicate thy knowledge. Math. 5. Christians must be like lights, that wast 2themselves for the good of those in Gods house. Scire tuum nihil est, nisi te scire hoc sciat alter. He that will be wise only to himself, takes the ready way to turne foole. Non licet habere privatam, ne privemur eâ. The closer we keep our knowledge, the likelier we are to loose it. Standing water soon puddles; the gifts of the mind, if they be not employed, will be impaired. Every wicked man is a fool by comparing their properties.
