2 Corinthians10:1

CHAP. X. Verſe 1. By the meekneſſe and gentleneſſe]

VVHom in thoſe ſweet vertues I deſire to imitate. The praiſe of Chriſts meekneſſe recorded by the Prophet, and explained by Philip, converted the Eunuch, Act. 8.

Who in preſence am baſe] i. e. Deſpicable, becauſe I take not upon me, and bear a port, as the falſe Apoſtles doe. Meekneſſe of ſpirit commonly draws on injuries. A Crow will ſtand upon a ſheeps back pulling off wool from her ſides.

Am bold toward you] So mine adverſaries report me, as if I were over-bold and buſie by my letters.
