Taking Warning
Luke 3:7-8
Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers…


Waldus, a rich merchant in Lyons, seeing one drop down dead in the streets, went home, and repented, changed his fife, and became a preacher, and was the father and founder of the people called Waldenses. 'Tis good to take warning by others' harms, and by the sight of their death, to look after our own life.

(Venning.)
