Find me such a Creature under the Moon, 1and do with it what you please: but saith the Church, Lord, thou shalt choose our inheritance for us; yea, the Lord is my portion, saith my soul. It is impossible to churn happiness out of a Chest of gold, it will never come, you can never make immarsible crowns of fading flowers.
Find me such a Creature under the Moon, 1and do with it what you please: but saith the Church, Lord, thou shalt chuse our inheritance for us; yea, the Lord is my portion, saith my soul. It is impossible to churn happiness out of a Chest of gold, it will never come, you can never make immarsible crowns of fading flowers.
Or, I will tell you when pleasures, profits, honours, will make you blessed, when you can sow your fields with Grace, and fill your barns with sheaves of Saffron, when the Lord Jesus is your wine, the Word of God your bread, the bosom of Christ your bed of love, the honour of Christ your trade, the graces of the Spirit your gold, then and not till then, you may write happiness upon these things. These are the pleasures which are for evermore, this is the enduring substance, these the Crowns that wither not, here you may find that which your soul seeketh for; here is the mine, here is the vein, here the spring of happiness, Ever with the Lord.
