And then they are not wearied, their malice is unwearied; they say to me. Daily.
And then they are not wearied, their malice is unwearied; they say to mee. Daily.
Day by day, their malice is fed with a spring, with a malicious heart. A malicious heart, and a slanderous tongue alway go well together. The Devil that was the first grand slanderer, hath communion with a malicious heart, ⟨p. 223⟩and he foments malice, and cherisheth that malicious poysonfull disposition: and a malicious disposition, never wants malicious words. As one saith, of anger, and fury, it ministereth weapons; so we may say of malice, and hatred, it ministereth words alway, a malicious heart will never want words. They say to me, daily, these are but circumstances, but yet they are somewhat considerable: for they tend to the aggravation of the disconsolate estate of this holy man; that he should meet with such wretched men, that had no pity at all on him, but say to him daily, Where is now thy God?
