Doct. 1 Every mans desire of grace and salvation, may be tried by his affection to the means thereof. He that is diligent in seeking is willing to find, as he that setteth himself to make speed in his way, hath a mind to his journeys end. So the Lord speaketh of the godly in one place of Isaiah, that they shall say: Come, let us ¹go up to the mountain of the house of the Lord, that he may teach ⟨p. 114⟩us his ways, and we may walk in his paths. And so the godly speak to the Lord in another place of Isaiah: The desire of our soul is to ²thy name, and to the remembrance of thee. With my soul have I desired thee in the night, and with my spirit within me will I seek thee in the morning.
