Inthe midst of ill rumours and amazements his countenance changeth not;for he knows both whom he hath trusted, and whither death can lead him. He is not so sure he shall die as that he shall be restored, andoutfaceth his death with resurrection. Finally, he is rich in works, busy in obedience, cheerful and unmoved in expectation, better withevils, in common opinion miserable, but in true judgment more thana man.
OF THE HUMBLE MAN.
He is a friendly enemy to himself; for, though he be not out of ...his ownfavour, no man sets so low a value of his worth as himself--not out ofignorance or carelessness, but of a voluntary and meek dejectedness. Headmires everything in another, while the same or better in himself hethinks not unworthily contemned. His eyes are full of his own wants, andothers' perfections. He loves rather to give than take honour; not in afashion of complimental courtesy, but in simplicity of his judgment. Neither doth he fret at those on whom he forceth precedence, as one thathoped their modesty would have refused; but holds his mind unfeignedlybelow his place, and is ready to go lower (if need be) withoutdiscontent.
