If wb need any new incentives, (says tbe
excellent Jeremy Taylor) to the practice of
humility, I cao say no more, : than that hu
mility is truth, and pride is a lie s the one
glorifies God, - the other dishonours him.
Humility makes men like angels to become
devils, -Pride is folly, humility is the temp
er of a holy spirit, and excellent wisdom. -Humility
is the way to glory ; pride, to ruin
and confusion: God. loves one, and Satan
solicits the cause of the other." K
