Again, a man walks with himself by reflection on his own actions, and heart, and ways; a beast cannot walk with it self, because it cannot recoil and turn in upon it self; neither can children or fools, or weak and unconstant men: therefore they cannot be without company, it is a hell to them to be alone; and the less a mans wisdom is, the more he complains of want of company.

Againe, a man walkes with himselfe by reflection on his owne actions, and heart, and wayes; a beast cannot walke with it selfe, because it cannot recoyle and turne in upon it selfe; neither can children or fooles, or weake and unconstant men: therefore they cannot be without company, it is a hell to them to be alone; and the lesse a mans wisedome is, the more he complaines of want of company.

Seeing therefore God is every where present, labour to strengthen thy faith in that his presence, and so thou mayest still be with him, and walk with him.

Seeing therefore God is every where present, labour to strengthen thy faith in that his presence, and so thou maist still be with him, and walke with him.

And then secondly, labour to speak to thy self, to reprove and admonish thy self, to consider thine own ways and actions, to cheer and comfort thy self, (for these are all the actions of one that makes himself a companion:) and he that doth these things, shall ⟨p. 168⟩never complain of want of company, and solitariness.
