For Thou, O Lord, most righteous Ruler of the Universe, while consulters and consulted know it not, dost by Thy hidden inspiration effect that the consulter should hear what, according to the hidden deservings of souls, he ought to hear, out of the unsearchable depth of Thy just judgment, to Whom let no man say, What is this?

I should probably have handed the traitor over to his fate; but, ere I had time to do so, he held out to my cupidity a bribe so tempting that I forgot the deservings of my knavish guest in the eagerness with which I bartered his freedom as the price of its possession. "He freely emptied his pockets at my bidding, and restored to me the gold, for the loss of which I never should have repined.
These are, needless to say, meditations upon death by law and violence; and so are the ingenious rhymes of Chidiock Tichborne, written after his last prose in his farewell letter to his wife "Now, Sweet-cheek, what is left to bestow on thee, a small recompense for thy deservings" and singularly beautiful prose is this.

Not even the energy of despair could set me on a level with that strength which his terrific prompter had bestowed upon Wieland.

And therefore "grace," and the deservings of the creature, are set in flat opposition one to another "And if by grace, then is it no more of works; otherwise grace is no more grace.
Nothing has been left unattempted by those wild and inhuman traitors for endeavouring to overturn your peace; and therefore we have good reason to hope that nothing will be wanting in you to secure yourselves and us from their outrages and violence in time coming, and to take care that such conspirators meet with their just deservings, so as others may thereby be deterred from courses so little agreeable to religion, or their duty and allegiance to us.
Myne age, myne honour and my honest dealing Sold to the hangmans Sword? Cap. I cannot stay. Bar. Take me And glory in my blood, you most ungratefull; Feed your long bloody hopes and bath your angers In Barnavelts deservings; share my Services; Let it be death to pitty me; to speak well of me, The ruyn of whole famylies.
