2 Corinthians6:11

Verſe 11. Our mouth is open unto you] We ſpeak thus freely unto you, out of our deep affection towards you: we even carve you a piece of our heart, we pour forth our ſelves in this floud of ſpeech, that thereby ye may take a ſcantling of our over-abundant love to your fouls. [non-Latin text not transcribed], open-mouthed men are put for fools oftentimes in Lucian and Aristophanes. But in another ſenſe then the Apoſtle here uſeth it. A large heart maketh a man full in the mouth, as if it ſought that way to get out to the thing affected.
