The servants that kept not Saul, but slipped in great danger, were accessories (as David tells Abner in Sauls case) though they betrayed him 1not: even so the careless delayer to get faith and repentance, shall perish, as he that hates to be reformed. The five foolish Virgins knocked to be let in, 2when the door was shut. Even so in all particular actions of our life, look we before all other things to keep our conscience pure and good. To the like purpose much might be said. And this by occasion of the servants delay, and their astonishment, when they saw how it fell out to them thereby.
