The eyes and the ears are the inlets or doors of the soul, through which innumerable objects enter; yet is not that spacious room filled, neither doth it ever say it is enough, but like the daughters of the horseleach, cries, ""Give, give""; and which is most strange, the more it receives, the more empty it finds itself and sees and impossibility ever to be filled but by Him in whom all fullness dwells.",,9338,•REVISIT and fill out publication information.,"""The eyes and the ears are the inlets or doors of the soul, through which innumerable objects enter.""",Rooms,2013-06-11 16:23:07 UTC,""

All men are truly said to be tenants at will, and it may as truly be said that all have a lease of their lives, some longer, some shorter, as it pleases our great Landlord to let. All have their bounds set, over which they cannot pass, and till the expiration of that time, no dagners, no sickness, no pains, nor troubles shall put a period to our days. The certainty that that time will come, together with the uncertainty, how, where, and when, should make us so to number our days to apply our hearts to wisdom, that when we are put out of these houses of clay we may be sure of an everlasting habitation that fades not away.",2007-04-20,9339,"•Cross-reference: Mary Leapor and Bible.
