[ 1396] God himself to be only expected as a Reward of all good endeavours.
THe Doctors of Doway (in their edition of Thomas of Aquines Summs) have
pictured him on the Title page,* 1.1 kneeling before a Crucifix, which they
feign to speak unto him thus, Bene scripsisti de me Thoma, &c. Thou hast written
well of me, Thomas, Say what reward wilt thou have? To which he seems to
reply, Nullam Domine, nisi teipsum, None, Lord, but thy self. Now quod illi
pictiè et fictè, that which they forge and feign of Aquinas, must be true of every
one of us thus far, We must expect and desire no other Reward for all our service
of God (both in life and in death) but onely God himself, for he is all in all.
