There be sundry other things whereby it were easy to blur
the countenance of this wisdom; and, from its intricacy, difficulty,
uncertainty, unsatisfactoriness, — betraying its followers into that which
they most profess to avoid, blindness and folly, — to write
upon it “vanity and vexation of spirit.” I hope I shall not need to add
any thing to clear myself for not giving a due esteem and respect unto
literature, my intendment being only to cast it down at the feet of Jesus
Christ, and to set the crown upon his head.
