to_o feed_v i_o by_o this_o answer_n moses_n perceive_v that_o this_o hermit_n have_v more_o confidence_n in_o the_o covetousness_n of_o his_o own_o wretched_a humour_n than_o in_o the_o grace_n and_o goodness_n of_o god_n of_o who_o largess_n and_o liberality_n he_o have_v have_v so_o good_a experience_n he_o do_v soon_o judge_v that_o there_o be_v not_o any_o vice_n more_o detestable_a than_o the_o sin_n of_o worldly_a covetousness_n in_o regard_v whereof_o he_o repute_v this_o hermit_n to_o be_v a_o man_n most_o detest_a and_o abhor_v of_o god_n above_o all_o other_o for_o this_o cause_n do_v all_o mahometist_n firm_o believe_v that_o all_o covetous_a man_n be_v utter_o destitute_a of_o the_o grace_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n for_o that_o they_o do_v aswell_o want_n even_o that_o which_o they_o have_v as_o that_o which_o they_o have_v not_o and_o true_a it_o be_v say_v they_o that_o the_o philosopher_n and_o all_o such_o as_o be_v hold_v to_o be_v wise_a do_v not_o know_v how_o to_o wish_v any_o great_a plague_n unto_o covetous_a man_n than_o that_o god_n will_v grant_v they_o to_o live_v long_o for_o the_o long_o they_o live_v the_o great_a be_v their_o want_n and_o

and_o torment_v of_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o turk_n touch_v the_o sin_n of_o lust._n cap._n 16._o it_o appear_v by_o the_o turkish_a alcoran_n and_o other_o book_n of_o their_o law_n that_o the_o mahometan_a religion_n do_v esteem_v the_o sin_n of_o lustor_n uncleanness_n to_o be_v no_o less_o hateful_a and_o abominable_a than_o any_o other_o of_o the_o deadly_a sin_n whatsoever_o in_o regard_v whereof_o every_o man_n be_v precise_o command_v by_o their_o law_n to_o take_v a_o lawful_a wife_n and_o to_o be_v marry_v to_o the_o intent_n they_o may_v eschew_v and_o avoid_v all_o occasion_n of_o fornication_n and_o uncleanness_n notwithstanding_o at_o this_o day_n the_o severity_n and_o strictness_n of_o that_o law_n be_v utter_o neglect_v and_o the_o memory_n thereof_o seem_v to_o be_v altogether_o abolish_v or_o lay_v asleep_a insomuch_o as_o that_o nation_n be_v not_o more_o incline_v to_o any_o one_o sin_n than_o to_o this_o sin_n of_o lechery_n for_o they_o be_v so_o pollute_v with_o the_o filth_n of_o unclean_a lust_n that_o they_o be_v not_o content_v with_o the_o abuse_n of_o woman_n for_o the_o satiate_a of_o their_o beastly_a humour_n but_o they_o be_v so_o outrageous_o give_v over_o to_o the_o abominable_a sin_n of_o sodomy_n that_o it_o be_v impossible_a without_o horror_n to_o be_v utter_v and_o albeit_o the_o law_n of_o mahomet_n do_v command_v that_o sodomite_n shall_v be_v stone_v to_o death_n yet_o the_o contagion_n of_o this_o detestable_a sin_n &_o enormity_n have_v so_o overspread_v all_o degree_n of_o man_n and_o the_o practice_n thereof_o be_v grow_v so_o common_a and_o usual_a amongst_o they_o that_o this_o law_n of_o they_o seem_v either_o to_o be_v abrogate_a or_o forget_v or_o clean_o neglect_v and_o contemn_v for_o they_o be_v altogether_o careless_a to_o put_v the_o same_o in_o execution_n either_o for_o the_o punish_n or_o for_o the_o restrain_v of_o this_o abomination_n neither_o do_v they_o any_o whit_n regard_n that_o which_o be_v write_v in_o their_o alcoran_n to_o wit_n how_o that_o those_o which_o be_v pollute_v with_o this_o corrupt_a &_o filthy_a vice_n be_v sure_a to_o be_v torment_v most_o extreme_o not_o only_o in_o this_o world_n but_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v both_o in_o soul_n and_o body_n beside_o in_o one_o of_o the_o book_n of_o their_o prophet_n mahomet_n they_o have_v a_o example_n propund_v and_o lay_v down_o unto_o they_o by_o which_o they_o be_v learn_v and_o teach_v as_o it_o be_v by_o experience_n how_o severe_a a_o judgement_n be_v reserve_v for_o such_o offender_n and_o how_o terrible_o the_o divine_a justice_n do_v plague_v such_o unclean_a and_o profane_a person_n for_o there_o it_o be_v write_v that_o in_o the_o day_n of_o mahomet_n there_o be_v one_o which_o be_v very_o importunate_a upon_o a_o young_a youth_n to_o have_v abuse_v he_o who_o find_v unwilling_a to_o yield_v unto_o his_o desire_n and_o see_v that_o by_o fair_a mean_n and_o entreaty_n he_o can_v not_o obtain_v his_o purpose_n he_o begin_v to_o press_v he_o by_o force_n and_o violence_n but_o the_o young_a man_n still_o refuse_v to_o condescend_v unto_o he_o at_o length_n flee_v from_o he_o and_o seek_v by_o flight_n to_o avoid_v the_o abuse_n offer_v he_o but_o be_v hardly_o follow_v and_o pursue_v by_o the_o other_o and_o find_v little_a hope_n or_o mean_n to_o be_v rid_v of_o he_o he_o draw_v his_o dagger_n and_o sudden_o turn_v about_o upon_o he_o he_o stab_v he_o into_o the_o belly_n and_o so_o have_v give_v he_o a_o mortal_a and_o deadly_a wound_n he_o save_v

upon_o what_o occasion_n he_o be_v draw_v to_o do_v that_o deed_n mahomet_n have_v hear_v the_o whole_a discourse_n and_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o fact_n present_o give_v sentence_n for_o the_o young_a man_n and_o pronounce_v he_o to_o be_v guiltless_a and_o that_o the_o other_o be_v just_o slay_v and_o he_o affirm_v open_o that_o such_o man_n be_v for_o ever_o damn_v both_o in_o soul_n &_o body_n that_o be_v defile_v with_o such_o damnable_a lust_n and_o unclean_a desire_n notwithstanding_o the_o accuser_n deny_v that_o to_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o homicide_n do_v therefore_o still_o importune_v he_o that_o the_o prisoner_n may_v have_v the_o law_n whereupon_o mahomet_n command_v they_o present_o to_o see_v the_o body_n of_o their_o brother_n bury_v and_o that_o they_o shall_v set_v good_a watch_n and_o ward_n about_o the_o grave_n or_o sepulture_n where_o he_o shall_v be_v lay_v say_v that_o the_o next_o day_n he_o will_v give_v a_o final_a judgement_n upon_o the_o
