Psalms34:12

Verſ. 12. What man is he that deſireth life] This is Davids Doctrin; and to draw company about him, he proclaimeth and promiſeth that which he well knew every man coveteth, happy life, many days, and a comfortable enjoyment of all. Now, who is it that would have theſe, ſaith he? Auſtine bringeth in all ſorts, ſaying, Ego & ego, I would, and I would. But as all men deſire health, but few take a right courſe to get it, and keep it; ſo all would be happy, but few hearken to this wholſome counſel, for the compaſſing of true happineſs.
