talents without sanctity

William Grimshaw to a lady who was expressing her admiration for a minister who had more talents than grace :- "Madam ", he said, "I am glad you never saw the devil . He has greater talents than all the ministers in the world. I fear, if you saw him , you would fall in love with him, as you have so high a regard for talents without sanctity. Pray, do not be led away with the sound of talents."
