I. The Dispensation it self, This Treasure we have in earthen Vessels, &c. II. The account of it, That the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. I shall begin with the first, the Dispensation it self, which hath two branches. 1. The Depositum, the thing laid up. 2. The Repository in which this Treasure is laid up.

Both make up a treasure. The Matter of it, the things of the Gospel are rich things, and the conveyances of it; the Ministerial gifts and ability, by which the Gospel is administered, do make up the Treasure: 'Tis a treasure in both respects.
