LET us come and be filled. And who came but the beggars, the maimed, the halt, the blind? But there came not thither the rich and the whole, who walked, as they thought, well, and saw acutely; who had great confidence in themselves, and were therefore in more desperate case, in proportion as they were more proud. Let the beggars come, for he inviteth them who though he was rich,
for our sakes became poor.
