Sunday morning, about 8. The table appeared, and the chair, and he who appeared yesterday: kneeling or rather lying prostrate on his face, as if he were asleep. He lay a long while. A thing like a lamb's head did seem to lick him: and then he rose and wiped his face as though he had wept. MEDICINA DEI: 'My medicine (which belongs to God) will assuredly heal all things. Man's memory is dull, unleast it taste of the sprinkling of this vessel. 'Nature and reason have disputed profoundly and truly by the savour hereof: it pierceth therefore deeply. But understanding and reason have elevated and lifted up the dignity and worthiness of man's memory, by taste hereof 'Great are my words, and great is thy thought. Greater shall be the end of these God's mercies.
