61. They, then, who have devoted themselves
to pleasures, luxury, robbery, gain, or honours are spectators rather
than combatants. They have the profit of labour, but not the
fruits of virtue. They love their ease; by cunning and wickedness
they heap up riches; but they will pay the penalty of their iniquity,
though it be late. Their rest will be in hell, thine in heaven;
their home in the grave, thine in paradise. Whence Job said
beautifully that they watch in the tomb, Job xxi. 32. for
they cannot have the calm of quiet rest which he enjoys who shall rise
again.
