be_v the_o servant_n of_o sin_v if_o whoredom_n have_v not_o be_v sin_v sure_o s._n john_n baptist_n will_v never_o have_v rebuke_v king_n herode_fw-la for_o take_v his_o brother_n wife_n but_o he_o tell_v he_o plain_o that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o he_o to_o take_v his_o brother_n wife_n he_o wynked_a not_o at_o the_o whoredom_n of_o herode_fw-la although_o he_o be_v a_o king_n of_o great_a power_n but_o bold_o reprove_v he_o for_o his_o wicked_a and_o abominable_a live_n although_o for_o thesame_a he_o lose_v his_o head_n but_o he_o will_v rather_o suffer_v death_n than_o see_v god_n so_o dishonour_v by_o the_o break_v of_o his_o holy_a precept_n then_o to_o suffer_v whoredom_n to_o be_v unrebuke_v even_o in_o a_o king_n if_o whoredom_n have_v be_v but_o a_o pastime_n a_o daliaunce_n and_o a_o thing_n not_o to_o be_v pass_v of_o as_o many_o count_v it_o now_o a_o day_n true_o john_n have_v be_v more_o than_o twice_o mad_a if_o he_o will_v have_v have_v the_o displeasure_n of_o a_o king_n if_o he_o will_v have_v be_v cast_v into_o prison_n and_o lose_v his_o head_n for_o a_o trifle_n but_o john_n know_v right_a well_o how_o filthy_a stynk_n and_o abominable_a the_o sin_n of_o whoredom_n be_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n therefore_o will_v not_o he_o leave_v it_o unrebuke_v no_o not_o in_o a_o king_n if_o whoredom_n be_v not_o lawful_a in_o a_o king_n neither_o be_v it_o lawful_a in_o a_o subject_n if_o whoredom_n be_v not_o lawful_a in_o a_o public_a officer_n neither_o be_v it_o lawful_a in_o a_o private_a person_n if_o it_o be_v not_o

age_n they_o be_v xv_o furthermore_o in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n we_o read_v that_o when_o the_o apostle_n and_o elder_n with_o the_o whole_a congregation_n be_v gather_v together_o to_o pacify_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o faithful_a dwell_v at_o antioch_n which_o be_v disquiet_v through_o the_o false_a doctrine_n of_o certain_a jewishe_a preacher_n they_o send_v word_n to_o the_o brethren_n that_o it_o seem_v good_a to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o to_o they_o to_o charge_v they_o with_o no_o more_o then_o with_o necessary_a thing_n among_o other_o they_o will_v they_o to_o abstain_v from_o idolatry_n and_o fornication_n from_o which_o say_v they_o if_o you_o keep_v yourselves_o you_o shall_v do_v well_o note_v here_o how_o these_o holy_a and_o bless_a father_n of_o christ_n church_n will_v charge_v the_o congregation_n with_o no_o mo_z thing_n than_o be_v necessary_a mark_v also_o how_o among_o those_o thing_n from_o the_o which_o they_o command_v the_o brethren_n of_o antioch_n to_o abstain_v fornication_n and_o whoredom_n be_v number_v it_o be_v therefore_o necessary_a by_o the_o determination_n and_o consent_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o the_o apostle_n and_o elder_n with_o the_o whole_a congregation_n that_o as_o from_o idolatry_n and_o superstition_n so_o likewise_o we_o must_v abstain_v from_o fornication_n and_o whoredom_n be_v it_o necessary_a unto_o salvation_n to_o abstain_v from_o idolatry_n so_o be_v it_o to_o abstain_v from_o whoredom_n be_v there_o any_o nigh_a way_n to_o lead_v unto_o damnation_n then_o to_o be_v a_o idolater_n no_o even_o so_o neither_o be_v there_o a_o near_a way_n to_o damnation_n then_o to_o be_v a_o fornicator_n and_o a_o whoremonger_n now_o where_o be_v those_o people_n which_o so_o light_o esteem_v break_v of_o wedlock_n whoredom_n fornication_n and_o adultery_n it_o be_v necessary_a say_v the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o bless_a apostle_n the_o elder_n with_o the_o whole_a congregation_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v necessary_a to_o salvation_n saiethe_v to_o abstain_v from_o whoredom_n if_o it_o be_v necessary_a unto_o salvation_n than_o woe_n be_v to_o they_o which_o neglect_v their_o salvation_n geve_v their_o mind_n to_o so_o filthy_a and_o stink_n sin_n to_o so_o wicked_a vice_n to_o such_o detestable_a abomination_n but_o let_v we_o hear_v what_o the_o bless_a apostle_n saint_n paul_n say_v to_o this_o matter_n write_v to_o the_o roman_n he_o have_v these_o word_n â–ª_o let_v we_o cast_v away_o the_o work_v of_o darkness_n and_o put_v on_o the_o armour_n of_o light_n xiii_o let_v we_o walk_v honest_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o day_n time_n not_o in_o eat_v and_o drynk_n neither_o in_o chambrynge_n and_o wantonness_n neither_o in_o strife_n and_o enui_v but_o put_v you_o on_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o make_v not_o provision_n for_o the_o flesh_n to_o fulfil_v the_o lust_n of_o it_o here_o the_o holy_a apostle_n exhort_v we_o to_o cast_v away_o the_o work_n of_o darkness_n which_o among_o other_o he_o call_v gluttonous_a eat_n drink_n chamber_v and_o wantonness_n which_o all_o be_v ministery_n unto_o that_o vice_n and_o preparation_n to_o induce_v &_o bring_v in_o the_o filthy_a sin_n of_o the_o flesh_n he_o call_v they_o the_o deed_n and_o work_v of_o darkness_n not_o only_o because_o they_o be_v customable_o do_v in_o darkness_n or_o in_o the_o night_n time_n iii._n for_o every_o one_o that_o do_v evil_a hate_v the_o light_n neither_o come_v he_o to_o the_o light_n lest_o his_o work_n shall_v be_v reprove_v but_o that_o they_o lead_v the_o right_a way_n unto_o that_o utter_a darkness_n xiii_o where_o weep_v and_o gnash_v of_o tooth_n be_v and_o he_o say_v in_o another_o place_n of_o thesame_a epistle_n they_o that_o be_v in_o the_o flesh_n can_v please_v god._n we_o be_v debtor_n to_o the_o flesh_n not_o that_o we_o shall_v live_v after_o the_o flesh_n for_o if_o you_o live_v after_o the_o flesh_n viij_o you_o shall_v dye_v again_o he_o say_v fly_v from_o whoredom_n for_o every_o sin_n that_o a_o man_n commit_v be_v without_o his_o body_n but_o whosoever_o commit_v whoredom_n syn_v against_o his_o own_fw-mi body_n vi_o do_v you_o not_o know_v that_o your_o membre_n be_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v in_o you_o who_o also_o you_o have_v of_o god_n and_o you_o be_v not_o your_o own_fw-mi for_o you_o be_v dere_o buy_v glorify_v god_n in_o your_o body_n etc._n etc._n and_o a_o little_a before_o he_o say_v do_v you_o not_o know_v that_o your_o body_n be_v the_o membre_n of_o christ_n shall_v i_o then_o take_v the_o membre_n of_o christ_n and_o make_v they_o the_o membre_n of_o a_o whore_n god_n forbid_v do_v you_o not_o know_v that_o he_o which_o cleve_v to_o a_o whore_n be_v make_v one_o

bring_v forth_o here_o to_o dissuade_v we_o from_o whoredom_n and_o all_o unclennesse_n your_o member_n say_v he_o be_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o whosoever_o do_v defile_v god_n will_v destroy_v he_o as_o say_v s._n paul_n if_o we_o be_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n how_o unsit_v then_o be_v it_o to_o drive_v that_o holy_a spirit_n from_o we_o through_o whoredom_n and_o in_o his_o place_n to_o set_v the_o wicked_a spirit_n of_o unclennesse_n and_o fornication_n and_o to_o be_v join_v and_o do_v service_n to_o they_o you_o be_v dere_o buy_v say_v he_o therefore_o glorify_v god_n in_o your_o body_n christ_n that_o innocent_a lamb_n of_o god_n vi_o i._o have_v buy_v we_o from_o the_o servitude_n of_o the_o devil_n not_o with_o corruptible_a gold_n and_o silver_n but_o with_o his_o most_o precious_a and_o dear_a heart_n bloudde_n to_o what_o intent_n that_o we_o shall_v fall_v again_o unto_o our_o old_a unclennesse_n and_o abominable_a live_n nay_o very_o xxxviii_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v serve_v he_o all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n in_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n that_o we_o shall_v glorify_v he_o in_o our_o body_n by_o
