BP. HALL'S MEDITATION ON A LIBRARY.

"WHAT a world of wit is here packed up together! I know not whether this sight doth more dismay or comfort me: it dismays me to think that here is so much that I cannot know; it comforts me to think that this variety yields so good helps to know what I should. There is no truer word than that of Solomon: There is no end of making many books. This sight verifies it. There is no end; indeed, it were pity there should. God hath given to man a busy soul; the agitation whereof cannot but, through time and experience, work out many hidden truths: to suppress these would be no other than injurious to mankind, whose minds, like unto so many candles, should be kindled by each other. The thoughts of our deliberation are most accurate; these we vent into our papers. What a happiness is it, that, without all offence of necromancy, I may here call up any of the ancient Worthies of Learning, whether human or divine, and confer with them of all my doubts! that I can, at pleasure, summon whole synods of reverend Fathers and acute Doctors from all the coasts of the earth, to give their well-studied judgments in all points of question which I propose! Neither can I cast my eye casually upon any of these silent masters but I must learn somewhat. It is wantonness to complain of choice. No law binds us to read all; but the more we can take in and digest, the better-liking must the mind needs be. Blessed be God, that hath set up so many clear lamps in His Church. Now, none but the wilfully blind can plead darkness. And blessed be the memory of those his faithful servants that have left their blood, their spirits, their lives, in these precious books; and have wasted themselves into these during monuments, to give light unto others."

BP. HALL ON THE PLEASURE OF STUDY.

"WHAT a heaven lives the scholar in, that at once, in one close room, can daily converse with all the glorious Martyrs and Fathers!—that can single out, at pleasure, either sententious Tertullian, or grave Cyprian, or resolute Jerome, or flowing Chrysostom, or divine Ambrose, or devout Bernard, or, who alone is all these, heavenly Augustine; and talk with them, and hear their wise and holy counsels, verdicts, and resolutions. Let the world contemn us; while we have these delights, we cannot envy them; we cannot wish ourselves other than we are. . Study itself is our life; from which

we would not be barred for a world: how much sweeter, then, is the fruit of study, the conscience of knowlege! in comparison whereof, the soul that hath once tasted it easily contemns all human comfort.

"Go now, ye worldlings, and insult over our paleness, our neediness, our neglect. Ye could not be so jocund, if you were not so ignorant: if you did not want knowledge, you would not overlook him that hath it. I am so far from emulating you, that

For me,

I profess I would as lief be a brute beast, as an ignorant rich man.”
