What then, brethren? shall we leave this unspoken of? Wherefore then is it read, if it shall not be spoken of? Or wherefore heard, if not ex- plained ? Yea, but why explained, if not understood ? But then again, as there be, I doubt not, among you, some by whom it can not only be received when explained, but even before it is explained be imderstood, I will not defraud those who are able to receive it, through fear of speaking idly to the ears of those who are not able to receive it. Moreover, ...God's mercy will be with us, belike that all may have enough and each receive what he is able ; while he that speaks, speaks what he is able. For to speak the thing as it is, who is able ? T dare to say it, my brethren : per- B 2 4 Elevated Souls, as lofty Mountains, HoMiL. Adventure not John himself spake the thing as it is, but even — ^ — he as he was able : for that thing was God, and he that spake was man : inspired, indeed, of God, yet man. As he was in- spired, he spake somewhat; had he not been inspired, he had spoken nothing : but as he was man inspired, he spake not the whole as it is, but what man could, that spake he.
