from A Sermon of Valediction at my going into Germany
"First remember, which word is often used in the Scriptures for considering and taking care: for God remembered Noah and every beast with him in the Ark; as the word which is contrary to that, forgetting, is also for the affection contrary to it, it is neglecting, Can a woman forget her child, and not have compassion on the son of her womb? But here we take not remembering so largely, but restrain it to the exercise of that one faculty, the memory, for it is Stomachus anime. The memory, says St. Bernard, is the stomach of the soul, it receives and digests, and turns into good blood, all the benefits formerly exhibited to us in particular, and exhibited to the whole Church of God . . . "
– John Donne (1619)
