26_o 27_o 30_o 31_o verse_n compare_v together_o and_o these_o be_v all_o contrary_a to_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n mention_v in_o the_o galatian_n for_o they_o be_v love_n joy_n peace_n long_o suffer_v gentleness_n goodness_n meekness_n temperance_n i_o have_v be_v thus_o particular_a in_o this_o branch_n of_o the_o litany_n because_o i_o have_v long_o observe_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o man_n in_o their_o prayer_n have_v common_o pass_v by_o these_o sin_n when_o they_o have_v long_o insist_v upon_o the_o confession_n and_o exaggeration_n of_o other_o less_o malign_v second_o that_o man_n in_o common_a conversation_n seldom_o express_v their_o dislike_n against_o they_o as_o against_o other_o that_o be_v more_o scandalous_a because_o more_o obvious_a to_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n which_o whether_o it_o proceed_v from_o a_o secret_a indulge_v of_o those_o sin_n or_o a_o gross_a mistake_n in_o think_v they_o more_o pardonable_a than_o other_o or_o because_o it_o be_v more_o easy_a or_o usual_a to_o gild_v and_o varnish_v over_o those_o spiritual_a lust_n with_o specious_a name_n and_o title_n of_o virtue_n as_o to_o call_v pride_n magnanimity_n revenge_n sense_n of_o honour_n envy_n emulation_n and_o the_o like_a i_o will_v not_o inquire_v and_o upon_o this_o score_n i_o the_o more_o value_n our_o litany_n and_o shall_v only_o observe_v this_o far_a as_o to_o this_o branch_n of_o it_o that_o the_o primer_n of_o salisbury_n have_v not_o pride_n hypocrisy_n envy_v mention_v in_o it_o the_o next_o branch_n have_v respect_n to_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n from_o fornication_n and_o all_o other_o deadly_a sin_n that_o be_v from_o all_o deliberate_a wilful_a presumptuous_a sin_n for_o it_o be_v wilfulness_n presumption_n deliberation_n that_o make_v sin_n deadly_a or_o unpardonable_a without_o special_a repentance_n whereas_o sin_n of_o surprise_n and_o incogitancy_n which_o tertullian_n call_v quotidianae_fw-la incursionis_fw-la and_o be_v so_o frequent_a that_o we_o can_v scarce_o know_v when_o we_o commit_v they_o for_o those_o god_n be_v please_v to_o accept_v of_o a_o more_o general_a repentance_n wherefore_o it_o be_v a_o groundless_a jealousy_n that_o make_v this_o objection_n against_o this_o prayer_n that_o it_o favour_v the_o popish_a distinction_n between_o venial_a and_o mortal_a sin_n and_o let_v i_o tell_v the_o reader_n far_o from_o all_o other_o deadly_a sin_n be_v not_o in_o the_o foresay_a primer_n and_o upon_o search_v it_o will_v be_v find_v that_o fornication_n be_v a_o very_a venial_a sin_n with_o they_o that_o coin_v this_o distinction_n and_o in_o a_o priest_n more_o pardonable_a than_o honest_a and_o honourable_a wedlock_n 2._o then_o we_o come_v to_o deprecate_v the_o evil_n of_o suffer_v or_o punishment_n which_o be_v of_o two_o sort_n such_o as_o concern_v our_o self_n and_o such_o as_o touch_v the_o public_a first_o such_o as_o may_v do_v we_o a_o
