Stones Turned into Bread
Luke 4:3
And the devil said to him, If you be the Son of God, command this stone that it be made bread.


How many are there that turn, not stones into bread, but lies, flatteries, base shifts, into silver and gold, yea, jewels and precious stones? Others turn stones, yea, precious stones, and their whole substance into bread, into meats, drinks, and apparel, and wastefully lavish God's good creatures on idle backs and bellies, using this as a means to procure something their affections want.

(D. Dyke.)
