Excerpt from Things New and Old, or a Storehouse of Similes, Sentences, Allegories, Apophthegms, Adages, Apologues, Divine, Moral, Political, Etc., With Their Several Applications, Vol. 1 of 2 There is a story, how that one ofi'ered to give his horse to his fellow, upon condition he would but say the Lord's Prayer, and thmk upon nothing but God. The proffer was accepted, and he began, Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. But I must have the bridle too, said he. N 0, nor the horse neither, said the other; for thou hast lost both already. And thus it is, that too many men and women, in both their private and public addresses unto God by prayer, are by the suggestions of Satan walking with St. Hierome in the galleries of Rome, having their hearts roving after pleasures of sin, their thoughts taken up with the things of this world, and their whole man set Upon vanity; whereas they should rather mind that which they are about, keep close to God, and be so watchful and intentive over their souls, that their hearts and tongues may go comfortably together: for, the outward work only is but like the loathsome smoke of Sodom, whereas the inward devotion of the heart isnot unfitly compared to the pleasant perfume of the sweetest frankin cause.
