A well-put exhortation to feast on the Word of God:
"Dwell ever among the green pastures of the Word of God. Make it indeed your bosom companion. Feed on the Scriptures till they come to be incorporated with your spiritual being. Not only pray and read, but pray reading, with your Bible open before you, gazing into its exceeding great and precious things, waiting till you apprehend them, or rather, till they apprehend you - literally 'getting them by heart' (as our expressive phrase is) longing to say with David, 'I rejoice at thy word as one that findeth great spoil', and with Jeremiah, 'Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and they were unto me the joy and rejoicing of my heart' (Psa. 119:162; Jer. 15:16)."
