2 Corinthians8:9

Verſe 9. He became poor] Not having where to lay his head, nor wherewith to pay tribute, till he had ſent to ſea for it, &c. Lo he that was heir of all things, Heb. 1.2. was ſcarce owner of any thing, but diſinriched and diſrobed himſelf of all, that through his poverty, he might crown us with the ineſtimable riches of heavenly glory: This is ſuch a motive to mercifulneſſe as may melt the moſt flinty heart that is.
