That cometh hence, because of the fullness of mercy that is in God, there is such an infinite Ocean, and stream, and treasure of Mercy in the Lord, that hence it is that when it cometh and beginneth to run unto the Saints, to the people of God, that the beginnings of it are but preparations, to let out more; the Scripture saith that God doth delight in mercy, in Micah 7.18. now that that a man delighteth in, if he once begin, that that he doth is but to draw on more; Gods Mercies are called his Riches, God is rich in Mercy; the Wisdom of God, the Power of God, and the Justice of God are not called Gods Riches, they are called his Glory, I will make my Glory to pass by, and God proclaims his Mercy; now then because the Mercies of God are his delight, his Riches, his Glory, when he hath fit subjects to let out these upon, when he beginneth once to let them out, these beginnings are Testimonies of a Fountain that is to be communicated.
