Secondly, where a good conscience is present, there the word of God is never absent: for that doth always dwell with fidelity and trueth. The same heart that entertaineth the one, doth evermore enjoy the other. And that dealeth faithfully with them that be faithful: it will not suffer them to wander aside through want of guidance, or to fall into mischiefs for fault of direction. It shall lead thee, saith one scripture, when thou walkest; it shall watch for thee when thou sleepest, and when thou wakest it shall talk with thee. ¹Thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saith an other scripture, saying, this is the way, walk in that, when thou turnest to the right hand or to the left.²
