1. See from hence, of what concernment the Actions of men are, whether internal or external: The actions of men are like the streams, you may certainly find the Fountain by them; they speak the heart, as the Root bears the fruit. 'Tis of infinite concernment, 'tis the Fountain of what principles within, and conversation without: descend but into thy own heart, &c.

3. Here is consolation to Gods people; Is the Heart of a man a Looking-glass? What reason have they to rejoice in their hearts, that are the best Looking-glasses in the world, not like our Gallants Looking-glasses that must not bewray their wrinkles, spots, &c. But theirs will represent their Heart, Complexion, Condition, and Nature to them; Nay, in that Glass may be seen the face of a God: Nay further, because thy Heart doth answer to another Heart, and his to his, whatever Grace is in any Believers, it is there in thy Heart, in semine; there's the seed.
