Fifthly,1 The better the seed, is for the most part the longer it lies under ground. When you sow Wheat and Rye you sow it at this* time of the year, but when you sow Barley and Oats you sow them in the Spring time, but that endures not frost and snow as the Wheat doth. And so the best of our actions lies longest under ground.

The Minister of God they are Sowers of the Seed of the Word; 1and the Hearers they should be Sowers too. The Ministers sows the Word in thy ears, and then thou shouldest take it from thence and sow it in thy heart, thy life and conversation.
