Do not therefore, like the silly Hart, go ever up and down, moaning and bleeding with the arrow in thy side, thy sins sticking in thy heart, but desire his helping hand to pluck them out, and without question thou shalt have it. He had a special command and commission from his Father to remember and redeem thee, to bind up the broken-hearted,1 to proclaim liberty to the captive, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound, to comfort them ⟨p. 185⟩that mourn; and dost thou think it possible for him to be unfaithful in his Office, or to his Father?
