Excerpt from Original Thoughts on Various Passages of Scripture: Being the Substance of Sermons Preached by the Late Rev. Richard Cecil A young heedless child, whipping a top upon the edge of a precipioe, is a complete picture of the levity and inconsideration of man by nature. He says, Let me be amused; let me not go to school and be in structed let me'not wear any yoke. But what says the Lord 7 I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit I have ordained that this shall be the first lesson in my school; and when there begins to be some proficiency in this lesson, there will be a new manner of speaking: I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus: Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bul lock unaccustomed to the yoke: turn thou me, andi shall be turned for thou art the Lord my God. Then, the Lord says, Is Ephraim my dear son? Is he a pleasant child Now, he is taught to go; his educa tion is somewhat advanced. This is the school into which God brought Naomi.
