-reth not ; as coming cheap and easy, and arising from the improvement of things which otherwise would be lost. Wherein he admires and imitates the wonderful providence and thrift of the great House- holder of the world. For, there being two things which, as they are, are unuseful to man, — the one for smallness, as crumbs and scattered corn, and the like ; the other for the foulness, as wash, and dirt, and things thereinto fallen — God hath provided creatures for both : for the first, poultry ...; for the second, swine. These save man the labor ; and, doing that which either he could not do, or was not fit for him to do, by taking both sorts of food into them, do as it were dress and prepare both for man in themselves, by growing themselves fit for his table.
The parson in his house observes fasting days. And particularly, as Sunday is his day of joy, so Friday his day of humiliation ; which he celebrates not only with abstinence of diet, but also of company, recreation, and all outward contentments ; and besides, with confession of sins, and all acts of mortification.
