Sect. II.
A Nabal-like Heart may seem sometimes to put forth a liberal hand, and make a Feast like a Prince, yet shall not a Churl be the more called liberal, The libe∣ral man deviseth liberall things. He onely is the liberall man that hath the liberall mind, whose thoughts are free in a better sence, then the old saying hath it; Tis not the drawing of the Purse to the Poor though that must be too where there is a Purse, but the drawing out the Soul to the Hungry that is true Charity,Two mites bestowed with one truly Generous and Li∣beral thought, is a righter Almesgiving then the giving of the two Hemispheres of the whole world, would be without it.
