I have seen men sometimes in the passages through a Church, to fall down upon their knees, qwhere often a stone upon a stone, here prayer doth not find the mountain, but the mountain finds prayer, the place surpriseth prayer: prayer doth not seek the place.

I hope you are not thus superstitious, to thinke one place better than another, one place to make prayer more acceptable than another.
