    'Charity and Faith make up one perfect pair of compasses, that can take the true latitude of a Christian heart: faith is the one foot, pitched in the centre unmoveably; while charity walks about, in a perfect circle of beneficence: these two never did, never can go asunder. Warrant you your love, I dare warrant your faith'.
