[ E] EVery thing must be taken in his meet time: let this Bladder alone till it be dry, and all the winde in the world cannot raise it up; whereas now it is new and moist the least breath fills and enlarges it.
It is no otherwise in Ages and Dispositions: inform the Childe in Precepts of Learning and Vertue whiles years make him capable, how pliably he yiel∣deth, how happily is he replenished with Knowledge and Goodnesse? let him
alone till time and ill example have hardned him, till he be setled in an Habit of [ A] Evil, and contracted and clung together with Sensuall delights, now he be∣comes utterly indocible. Sooner may that Bladder be broken then distended.
