Wherefore, seeing we must thus prepare our minds before, and examine our hearts after,1 and we are unapt to hear or pray, after we are refreshed, because our minds are laden and2 our bodies are heavy, it shall be good in the morning so soon as we awake, to meditate of3 GOD our Creator, to call to mind the glory of the Appearing of CHRIST, to consider of the day of the Resurrection, and to muse of our rising to Judgement. Thus doing, we shall see as in a present view, all the graces of God set as it were before our eyes, and and many comfortable things of Gods spirit coming to our minds. This we see was the practise of the man of God in this place, I prevented (saith he) the morning light.4
