The pattern of wholesome words. Or a collection of such truths as are of necessity to be believed unto salvation separated out of the body of all theology made evident by infallible plain proofs of Scripture. And withal, the several uses such principles should be put to, are abundantly showed. A project much desired, and of singular use for all sorts of Christians. By N. Bifeild [sic], preacher of Gods word at Isleworth in Middlesex.The paterne of wholsome words.

Tenthly, let the best of us take heed of a strange deceit, and that is to rest in fair words, and attentive hearing. How is it, that men, that hear many precious counsels, comforts, & reproofs, go away without any reformation, and think they do well, if they commend the Sermon? &c. Oh, how common is this disease to be awake to hear of the disease, or medicine, and fall a sleep before it be applied? like those hearers in the Gospel, of whom it is said, They heard, they marvelled, and they went their ways.
