S. BERN. Ser. 21. in Cant.
Miserable man! Who shall deliver me from the reproach of this shamefull bondage? I am a miserable man, but a free man: Free because like to God; miserable, because against God: O keeper of mankind, why hast thou set me as a marke against thee? Thou hast set me, because thou hast not hindred me. It is just that thy enemy should be my enemy, and that he who repugnes thee, should repugne me: I who am against thee, am against my selfe.
