[ 620] Vnworthy Communicants, condemned.

CHildren when they first put on new shooes, are very curious to keep them clean, scarce will they set their foot on the ground,* 1.1 for fear to dirty the soles of their shooes, yea rather they will wipe them clean with their Coats; and yet per∣chance the next day, they will trample with the same shooes up to the ancles. Alas,* 1.2 childrens play is our earnest; On that day we receive the Sacrament, we are often over-precise, scrupling to say or do those things which lawfully we may: But we who are more then curious that day, are not so much as careful the next day; and too often (what shall I say) go on in sin up to the ancles, yea our sins go over our heads, Psal. 28. 5.
