in the learned languages, the words that do express wisdom imply likewise the general relish and savor of the whole soul, and rather more the judgment of taste than of sight, or any other sense, because taste is the most necessary sense, and requireth the nearest application of the object of all other senses. So in spiritual life, it is most necessary that the Spirit should alter the taste of the soul, so as that it might savor the things of the Spirit so deeply, that all other things should be out of relish.
