Mr Newton, A Fellow Of Our College,

We May Be As Good As We Please, If We Please To Be Good.

It Consisteth In One Knows Not What, And Springeth Up One Can Hardly Tell How. Its Ways Are Unaccountable And Inexplicable, Being Answerable To The Numberless Rovings Of Fancy And Windings Of Language.

As A Stick, When Once It Is Dry And Stiff You May Break It, But You Can Never Bend It Into A Straighter Posture; So Doth The Man Become Incorrigible Who Is Settled And Stiffened Into Vice.

The Proper Work Of Man, The Grand Drift Of Human Life, Is To Follow Reason, That Noble Spark Kindled In Us From Heaven.

Wherefore For The Public Interest And Benefit Of Human Society It Is Requisite That The Highest Obligations Possible Should Be Laid Upon The Consciences Of Men.
