The Righteous Man's Assault by His Enemies
Psalm 6:6-7
I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.…


The pirates, seeing an empty bark, pass by it; but if she be loaded with precious wares, then they will assault her. So, if a man have no grace within him, Satan passeth by him, as not a convenient prey for him, but being loaded with graces, as the love of God, his fear, and such other spiritual virtues, let him be persuaded that according as he knows what stuff is in him, so will he not fail to rob him of them, if in any case he may.

(A. Symson, B. D.)
