Ver. 8. We cannot, until all the flocks.] As we are not, by the example of these shepherds, to enterprise things above our strength, Psa 131:1 so neither to be discouraged by every difficulty; but to lend, and borrow help one of another; each man "pleasing his neighbour for his good, and serving him in love, to edification". Rom 14:1-2

Divisae his operae, sed mens fuit unica, pavit

Ore Lutherus oves, flore Melancthon apes .”
