In-Text |
Although the good are never truly wretched, yet few there are that make themselves such Monsters, as (in the common crowd) not to complain. 'Tis not alone at others Funerals that we contend to be in mourning; but each Man in his own losses pursues the fashion, and, what he wants in woe, makes out in noise; he puts his Fortunes into black, to court his Neighbors pity; so that whil'st he cloaths his complaint with sables (much above the quality and true estate of his exigence) he makes his misery as it were his boast, and it appears more like the daughter of his pride, than his misfortune; as if Jerusalem 's sad exclamation became his mouth, Is there any sorrow like unto my sorrow ? Each mans particular unhappiness is to his own eyes magnifi'd beyond the proportion of anothers sufferings. What Man in pain, deems not his own distemper most insupportable? How many does misfortune urge to wish that to themselves, which Hezekiah deplores in others, That when they being Children came to the Birth, there had not been strength to bring forth , |
