But what doth the Christian like this? None is ashamed, none repenteth, save that he was not such long ago. If he be marked down, he glorieth; if accused, maketh no defense; being questioned, confesseth even of his own accord; being condemned, giveth thanks. What manner of evil is this, which hath not the natural marks of evil, fear, shame, shrinking, penitence, sorrow? What manner of evil is this, whereof he that is accused rejoiceth?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6796</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Maidens, like moths, are ever caught, by glare, And Mammon wins his way where seraphs might despair. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26232]]></link><description><![CDATA[Maidens, like moths, are ever caught, by glare, And Mammon wins his way where seraphs might despair.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26232</guid></item></channel></rss>
