'Two things a master commits to his servants' care,' saith one, 'the child and the child's clothes.' It will be a poor excuse for the servant to say, at his master's return, 'Sir, here are all the child's clothes, neat and clean, but the child is lost!' Much so with the account that many will give to God of their souls and bodies at the great day. 'Lord, here is my body; I was very grateful for it; I neglected nothing 'that belonged to its content and welfare; but as for my soul, that is lost and cast away for ever. I took little care and thought about it!': Flavel.
