21. A great man having injured a Philosopher, se•t his servant to entreat or charge him that he would not write against him; by whom •e returned this answer, that he was not at leisure to think of him. Oh sweet living, when injuries intermeddle not with the soul, but it can enjoy it self, and employ it self without disturbance.

22. Valerius Maximus, tells us of ⟨p. 184⟩a young Noble man that attended on Alexander while he was sacrificing, and while he held the Censer for Incense, there fell a coal upon his flesh, and burnt it so, as the very sent of it was in the nostrils of all that were about him; and yet because he would not disturb Alexander in his service, he did not stir to put off the fire from him, but holds still his Censer. What care should we take then that we may attend upon the true and living God without disturbance?
