Philippians3:20
Verſe 20. For our converſation] Our civil converſation, or Our Burgeſſeſhip, whiles we live by heavens laws, and go about our earthly buſin[illegible: 1 letter]ſſes with heavenly mindes: This a carnall man cannot skill of. A Fly cannot make that of a flower that a Bee can do. There is a generation whoſe names are written in the earth: theſe make earth their throne, heaven their foot[illegible: 2 letters]ool,Jer. 17.13. and are loth to die, becauſe they have treaſur[illegible: 1 letter]s in the field.Jer. 41.8. But the Saints, though their commoration be on earth, yet their converſation is in heaven; as the pearl grows in the ſea, but ſhines as the sky.
