Fuller's wealth of imagination, fertility 
of illustration and picturesqueness and 
quaintness of style, nowhere appear to 
better advantage than in his ‘“‘Good 
Thoughts for Bad Times,’’ a work 
which was thought worth reprinting in 
in the time of our own Civil War as a 
book for the times; it is full of such wise 
and witty paragraphs as these: 
“Lord, the preacher this day came 
home to my heart. A left-handed Gibeo- 
nite with his sling hit not the mark more 
sure than he my darling sins. I could

find no fault with his sermon, save only 
that it had too much truth. But this I 
quarrelled at, that he went far from his 
text to come close to me, and so was 
faulty himself in telling me of my faults. 
Thus they will creep out at small cran- 
nies who have a mind to escape; and yet 
I cannot deny but that which he spake 
(though nothing to that portion of Scrip- 
ture which he had for his text) was ac- 
cording to the proportion of Scripture. 
And is not thy word in general the text 
at large of every preacher? Yea, rather 
I should have concluded, that if he went 
from his text, thy goodness sent him to 
meet me; for without thy guidance it had 
been impossible for him so truly to have 
traced the intricate turnings of my deceit- 
ful heart.”’ 
‘*Travelling on the plain (which not- 
withstanding, hath its risings and fall- 
ings), I discovered Salisbury steeple many 
miles off; coming to a declivity, I lost 
sight thereof; but climbing up the next 
hill, the steeple grew out of the ground 
again. Yea, I often found it and lost it, 
till at last I came safely to it, and took 
my lodging near it. It fareth thus with 
us, whilst we are wayfaring to heaven: 
mounted on the Pisgah top of some good 
meditation, we get a glimse of our celest- 
ial Canaan. But when either on the flat 
of an ordinary temper, or in the fall of 
an extraordinary temptation, we lose the 
view thereof. ‘Thus, in the sight of our 
soul, heaven is discovered, covered and 
recovered; till, though late, at last, 
though slowly, surely, we arrive at the 
haven of our happiness.’’ 
“*T heard a preacher take for his text: 
Am not [ thine ass, upon which thou 
hast ridden ever since I was thine unto 
this day? was I ever wont to do so unto 
thee? I wondered what he would make 
thereof, fearing he would starve his audi- 
tors for want of matter. But hence he 
observed: 
1. The silliest and simplest, being 
wronged, may justly speak in their own 
defence. 
2. Worst men have a good title to 
their own goods. Balaam a sorcerer; yet 
the ass confesseth twice he was his. 
3. ‘They who have done many good 
offices, and fail in one, are often not only 
unrewarded for former service, but pun- 
ished for that one offence. 
4. When the creatures, formerly of- 
ficious to serve us, start from their wont- 
ed obedience (as the earth to become bar- 
ren, and air pestilential), man ought to 
reflect on his own sin as the sole cause 
thereof. 
How fruitful are the seeming barren 
places of Scripture. Bad plowmen, which 
make balks of such good ground. Where- 
soever the surface of God’s word doth 
not laugh and sing with corn, there the 
heart thereof within is merry with mines, 
affording, where not plain matter, hidden 
mysteries.’
