"For thy sustenance shewed thy sweetness to thy children, and serving every man’s will, it was turned to what every man liked."
Nel contesto
19And at another time the fire, above its own power, burned in the midst of water, to destroy the fruits of a wicked land.
20Instead of which things thou didst feed thy people with the food of angels, and gavest them bread from heaven prepared without labour; having in it all that is delicious, and the sweetness of every taste.
21For thy sustenance shewed thy sweetness to thy children, and serving every man’s will, it was turned to what every man liked.
22But snow and ice endured the force of fire, and melted not: that they might know that fire burning in the hail and flashing in the rain destroyed the fruits of the enemies.
23But this same again, that the just might be nourished, did even forget its own strength.
