Of the excellent worth which holy Loue be∣stowes vpon the actions which issue from it selfe, and to those which proceede from other vertues. CHAPTER. VI.
1. BVt you will aske me what this worth is which holy Loue bestowes vpon our a∣ctions? ô God THEO: I Verily I should not dare to speake it, if the Holy Gost himselfe had not de∣clared it in expresse termes, by his Apostle S. Paule, who saieth thus: That our tribulation which is presently momentarie and light, worketh aboue measure exceedingly an eternall weight of glorie in vs. For the loue of IESVS let vs ponder these words. Our tribulations which are so light that they passe in a moment worke in vs the solide and stable weight of glorie: I beseech you behold these wonders! Tribulation produceth glorie; lightnesse giues weight, moments worke eternitie. But what is it that can enrich these fleeting mo∣ments, and light tribulations with so great worth?
