In difficulties that even now beset your path, and in the serious con- templation of the conflicts that await you in after-life, study to attain unto that neg- lected command of the Lord Jesus him- self, " Be ye wise as serpents. " So long- as no sacred obligation is violated, no bond of charity and faithfulness broken, nor godly simplicity be offended, ye may dis- creetly suit the tenor of your instruction, and the mode of imparting truth, to the times and the seasons. Yet I do beseech ' Ps. X...i. 9. LECTURE III. 63 you, earnestly pray that ye may guard against a temporizing spirit of concilia- tion — that ye may be preserved from that crooked habit of mind, which is always seek- ing to manage men's temj)ers and to lead the unsuspecting, to forward its own petty machinations. Flee from that circuitous mode of address and explanation, which the shrewd man so highly values in him- self. Scorn to admit tha!t false tact, Avhich is ever plotting, how it may turn the plain- ness of straight-forward behaviour, to the accomplishment of mean and selfish pur- poses.
