S. BERN. Ser. 21 in Cant.
Miserable man! Who shall deliver me from the reproach of this shamefull bondage? I am miserable man, but a free man: Free, because like to God, miserable, because against God: O keeper of mankind, why hast thou set me as a marke against thee? Thou hast set me, because thou hast not hindred me: It is just that thy enemy should be my enemy, and that he who repugnes thee, should repugne me: I who am against thee, am against my self.
