The spirit of a man is like water that runs from Minerals; as we see bathes have their warmth from Minerals that they run through, they have a tincture from them to be hot in this or that degree, in this or that quality.
So it is with the soul, when it runs through holy things, when it hath to deal with good books, and good company, &c. it draweth a spiritual tincture: and therefore if we would have the Spirit of God to guide us, let us be much in those things that the Holy Ghost hath sanctified us for that end, at all times, when we have liberty from our callings.
