[ 706] Not to rest in outward performances of Duty, because
dangerous.
REmigius, a Judge of Lorraigne tells this story, That the Devill in those parts
did use to give money to Witches,* 1.1 which did appear to be good coyn, seemed
to be current at first; but being laid up a while, it then appeared to be nothing
but dry leaves: So the Devill deceives men now in these dayes of so large Profes∣session
he makes them to do outward actions which have a fair shew; but when they
need them,* 1.2 then they appear as they are, to be nothing but dry leaves, meer dead
leaves, because there is no life in them; they hear, they pray, they read, they sing
Psalms, but they turn not the mans to spirituall nourishment, there is not a prin∣ciple
of spiritall life in them.
