March 27. A poor soul being mightily in∣snared with the world, and finding by experi∣ence its vanity and vex∣ation, he resolved against it, divided his estate be∣twixt his wife and chil∣dren, desiring thence∣forth piously to make his soul to rejoyce in Gods blessings and his own labors, and to give himself to the LORD wholly for the remain∣der of his days: This desire he makes at the feet of Christ.
