3. Are not they proud who despise others? Luke 18. 9. The Pharisees trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised †others. The people of the Chinese say, that Europe hath one eye, and they have two, and all the world else is blind: A proud man looks upon others with such an eye of scorn, as Goliath did upon David, 1 Sam. 17. 42.
