A _Proselyte-Wolf_ is a very Saint yet to a _Proselyte-Christian_,
that makes his Belly his God, and Renounces his Faith for Bread. Now
over and above the Lively Image of the Practice of the World in this
Wonderfull Conversion, ’tis Pleasant enough to consider how Gravely the
_New-Convert_ is taken up by one of his _Fellow Wolves_, for bringing
such a Disgrace upon his Character and Function, as to Submit to the
Picking up of a Livelyhood in that _Strolling_ way of Canting and
Begging; which in the Moral, gives us to Understand, that the Hypocrite
is the Fouler and the Baser Beast of the Two. The Doctrin of this Fable,
if the Matter were well Examin’d, would more or less run through the
whole Race of Mankind; for Repentance and a New Life, is naturally the
Discourse and Retreat of Old Sinners, when they find they can live by
Barefac’d Wickedness no longer: What a Hideous Roll would it make, if the
Names of all the People that are Pointed at under this Emblem of the
_Pilgrim-Wolf_ were written in their Foreheads!
