Watchfulnesse of life, rewarded. [ 962]
THat famous Apollonius, held in his time for an Oracle of the World, com∣ing
very early in the morning to Vespasians Gate, and finding him awake,
conjectured thereupon, that he was worthy to command an Empire, and said to
his Companion that went along with him 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, undoubtedly, this Man
will be Emperour, because he is so watchfull. Thus whosoever thou art, that
with David, dost seek God early, and with those three women that looked after
Christ very early in the morning; thou that remembrest thy Creator in the days
of thy youth, that art circumspect in walking, careful of thy life and conversation,
diligent in thy way, be assured that thou shalt stand before Princes, that thou hast
not laboured in vain, nor spent thy strength for nought, for thy judgement is with
the Lord, and thy work with thy God, who will fully reward thee.
