The holy Eucharist, or, The mystery of the Lords Supper briefly explained

8. We must come with humble hearts. We see Christ humbling himself to the death; and vvill an humble Christ ever be received into a proud heart^*? A sight of God's glory, and a sight of sin, may humble us. Was Christ humble, who was all Purity? And are we proud, who are all Leprosy?. O let us come with a sense of our own vileness.
