Imagine you see a sinner going to hell, and his summoner gape at him, his acquaintance look at him, the Angels shout at him, and the Saints laugh at him, and the devils rail at him, and many look him in the face: and they that said they would live and die with him, forsake him, and leave him to pay all the scores. Then Judas would restore his bribes. Esau would cast up his pottage. Achan would cast down his gold, and Gehezi would refuse his gifts. Nebuchadnezzar would be humbler. Balaam would be faithful, and the Prodigal son would be tame.
