Mark 4:21
Douay-Rheims
And he said to them: Doth a candle come in to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?
Bede the Venerable
(ubi sup.) For sometimes a clever reader by neglecting his mind, deprives himself of wisdom, of which he tastes the sweetness, who, though slow in intellect, works more diligently.
