The life of Man, miserable▪ [ 863]
THe life of man may very well be resembled to a River,* 1.1 which as it comes
from the Sea, so it returns thither again: And thus the beginning and ending
of our daies,* 1.2 may be said to be full of salt-water, full of crosses, full of misery; our first
voice a cry, our last a groan. There may be happily some fair, fresh, clear water in the
way, some lucida inter valla, some seeming delights and pleasures in the middle age of
our life; but it passeth away so swiftly, that it is no sooner seen, but gone. Iob 4. 14.
