But thus much I know; 1That the exigency and urgency of other mens ⟨p. 128⟩occasions, did importune, and in part, draw him to it. And then again, his staying at home, was very tedious to him. It is death to an industrious man, that hath been in employment, to be idle; as it is death to an idle man, to be employed.
