Excerpt from Sermons on Different Subjects, Vol. 2 The upright perfontis confiant and confifientwith himfelf; his heart and his face, his mind and his fpeech, his profefiions and his deeds agree together; He ufes no tricks to ferve a prefent turn, he draws no one into mifchief for the furtherance of his own ends; he never hath recourfe to detraehon, diflimu lation, flattery, fawning and crouching: his wifdom is tempered with humanity, meeknefs, and charity; he lies not under perpetual confiraint, engaged to keep a confiant guard upon himfelf, to watch-his memory, to curb his tongue, to manage his very looks, left they fhould betray his intentions. Men do not fhun his commerce, but readily place a confidence in him. He therefore undifiurbedly partakes of the benefits of fociety, and pafl'eth his days with fafety, quiet, and reputation.
