Book I, 100: On the Buying of the New Testament

Reader, If thou wilt prove no more
Then what I terme thee, ev'n before
Thou aske the price, turne backe thine eye;
If otherwise, unclaspe, and buy:
Know then, the Price of what thou buy'st,
Is the deare Blood of Iesus Christ;
Which Price is over-deare to none,
That dares protect it with his owne:
If thou stand guilty of the price,
Ev'n save thy purs-strings, and be wise:
Thy mony will but, in conclusion,
Make purchase of thy owne Confusion:
But if that guilt be done away,
Thou mayst as safely buy, as pay.
