The Fountain of Life Opened

Divers worthy modern pens have indeed undertaken this noble subject before me: some more ^*succinctly: others more ^†Copiously: These have done worthily, and their praises are in the Churches of Christ: yet, such a breadth there is in the knowledge of Christ, that not only those, who have written on this subject before me, but a thousand Authors more may employ their pens after us, and not one interfere with, or straiten another.

And such is the deliciousness of this subject that were there ten thousand Volumes written upon it, they would never cloy, or become nauseous to a gracious heart. We use to say one thing tires, and it's true that it doth so; except that one thing be virtually, and eminently all things; as Christ is: and then one thing can never tire. For such is the variety of sweetness in Christ, who is the deliciae humanigeneru, the delights of the Children of men; that every time he is opened to believers, from Pulpit, or Press; it is as if Heaven had furnished them with a new Christ: and yet he is the same Christ still.
