Venerable John Henry Newman, C.O., preached a sermon, of which the following notes survive:
The Healing of the Man Deaf and Dumb
Various maladies which our Lord cured, typical of various sins.
1. Blind.—Those that have not faith, and do not apprehend doctrine.
2. Deaf.—Those that are without devotion and cannot hear the songs of angels.
3. Dumb.—Those who through cowardice or pride do not confess the Gospel, though they believe in it.
4. Without taste (and smell).—Those who have a dull, unsensitive conscience.
5. Lame.—Those who are slothful.
