[ 882] To make Christ our Lord and Master.
IT is said of Mr. George Herbert that divine Poematist,* 1.1 that to satisfie his Inde∣pendency
upon all others, and to quicken his diligence in Gods service; he used
in his ordinary speech, when he made mention of the blessed name of Iesus, to
add, my Master; And without all doubt, if men were unfeignedly of his mind,
their respects would be more to Christ's command, to Christ's will, to Christ's plea∣sure;
could they but lift up their eyes to God, to him that dwells in the Hea∣vens;
then as eyes of servants look unto the hands of their Masters, and as the eyes
of a Maiden unto the hands of her Mistress,* 1.2 so would their eyes wait upon, and
their hearts be in a dutiful frame of obedience unto the commands of Christ their
Lord and Master.
