And if they who are abused come to the pastor in the city, (for so they
call a man who is not one of the meekest,)
complaining
of the injustice
that has been done
{79}

ought to think themselves happy that they have suffered no more.

She who made
pretence
of being:
From her hands the book has slipped
In which her eyes read nothing.
