Not to know what's in the World, and not to know what's Done in the World, comes much to the same Thing, and a Man is one way no less a Stranger, than t'other. To proceed. He is no better than a Deserter that renounces Publick Reason, and the Laws of Providence. He is a Blind Man, that Winks with his Understanding; And he is a Beggar that is not furnished at Home, but wants the Assistance of another. He that frets himself Sore because Things don't happen just as he would have them, is but a sort of an Ulcer of the World; By murmuring at the Course of Nature, he quits the Universal Body, and gains only the Distinction of a Disease. Never considering that the same Cause which produced the displeasing Accident, made him too. And lastly. He that is Selfish, narrow-Soul'd, and sets up for a Separate Interest, is a kind of Voluntary Out-Law, and Disincorporates himself from Mankind.
