Daniel5:20
Ver. 20. But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind hardend in pride] Pride is of an hardening property, cauſeth men to commit ſin with an high hand, as Pharaoh. The increaſe of the ſpleen is the decreaſe of the body: ſo is pride of the ſoul, and overturneth the whole man. Evagrius noteth it for a ſpecial commendation of Mauritius the Emperour, that he was not puffed up with his preferments.
