the Eyes of them who cannot bring themselvs to forgive their Enemies not only that the Sin is grievous but also that by the continuance of the Sin● it grows greater For whereas he XXXIII The perverseness of Hatred whose Mind is thus affected thirsts after his Enemies Bloud being full of Hope of being reveng'd on him is Night and Day so imploy'd in the continual agitation of his wicked Mind that he seems never to be quiet from the contriving of Murder or some other heinous thing whence it comes to pass that either never or with very great Labor is he driven to it either wholly to pardon or at least in some measure to remit Injuries And therefore it is rightly compar'd to a Wound Note wherein the Arrow sticks fast There are moreover many Inconveniences and Sins XXXIV The attenddants of Hatred 1 Joan. 2.11 which are chain'd as it were to this one Sin of Hatred And therefore S. John according to this Sense spake thus He that hates his Brother is in darkness and walks in darkness and knows not whither he goes because Darkness has blinded his Eyes Therefore he must needs fall oftentimes for how can it be that a man can allow the Words and Actions of him whom he hates Hence proceed rash and unjust Judgments Anger Envy Reviling and such like wherein even they also are insnar'd who are related in Kinddred or Friendship And therefore it often happens that out of one Sin Note spring a great many Nor is this wrongfully call'd the Devils Sin XXXV Hatred the Devils Sin Joh. 8. Because he was a Murderer from the beginning Wherefore our Lord Jesus Christ the Son of God when the Pharisees sought to put him to Death said That they were begotten of their Father the Devil But besides these which have been mentioned XXXVI Remedies against Hatred there are other Remedies deliver'd in the Monuments of Holy Scripture and those indeed very fit whence Reasons may be had for detestation of this Wickedness And the first and greatest Remedie of all The First is the Example of our Saviour which we ought to imitate For he tho he could not in the least be suspected to be guilty of any Sin yet when he was beaten with Rods crown'd with Thorns and at last Crucifi'd he made this Prayer so full of Piety Luc. 23.4 Father forgive them for they know not what they do The sprinkling of whose Bloud Heb. 12.24 as the Apostle testifies Speaks better than that of Abel Another Remedy propos'd by Ecclesiasticus The Second Is to remember Death and the Day of Judgment Remember Ecclus 7.40 says he thy last things and thou wilt not sin for ever The meaning whereof is as if he had said Often times consider this again and again that shortly thou must die and because at that time thou wilt have very much to do and that it will he highly necessary to obtain the infinite Mercy of God it is necessary for thee to put it now and always before thy Eyes for so it will come to pass that that unruly desire of Revenge will leave thee since for the obtaining of Gods Mercy thou canst find no Remedy fitter or greater than Forgetfulness of Injuries and to love them who have wrong'd either thee or thine in Deed or Word The Sixth COMMANDMENT of the DECALOGVE Thou shalt not commit Adultery BEcause the Bond between the Husband and Wife is the strictest I. Why this Commandment plac'd in this O●der and nothing can happen more delightful to both of them than to know that they are belov'd with a mutual and singular kind of Love and on the contrary nothing more grievous than to perceive their lawful and due Love to be bestow'd elswhere rightly and in good order does this Law concerning Whoredom and Adultery follow that which defends the Life of Man from Murder So that no one by the Wickedness of Adultery dares violate or break off the Holy and Honorable Conjunction of Matrimony wherein there is us'd to be the great Power of Love But yet in explaining of this very thing II. This Commandment to be explain'd with caution let the Curat be very cautious and prudent and handle the Matter with modest Expressions a Matter which rather wants Restriction than copious Discourse for it is to be fear'd lest while he endeavours too largly and fully to explain by what Means Men depart from the Rule of this Law they haply fall upon the Discourse of those things from whence uses to arise Matter rather of provoking Lust than the way of restraining it But because in this Commandment many things are contain'd which are not to be pretermitted III. The Division of this Commandment The first Part forbidding those things shall be explain'd in their proper places The Force of it therefore is double The One wherein Adultery is plainly forbidd'n Vide 32. q. 4. c. Meretrices Item ibid. multa alia capita Item Amb. de Abraham c. 4. Hier. contra Jovin l. 1 l. 2. item in c. 5. Epist ad Galat. ad illa verba Manifesta autem item in c. 5. ad Eph. ad haec verba Viri diligite Aug. de bono conjug c. 16. lib. 22. cont Faust c. 47.48 item in quaest Deut. q. 37. ad c. 23. iterum Amb. in Serm. de S. Joan. qui sic incip Diximus superiore Dominica est 65. item Greg. in moral lib. 12. c. 21. D. Th. 1 2. q. 100. a. 5. 2.2 q. 122. a. 6. The Other The other part requiring which requires us to keep Chastity both of Mind and Body But to begin with that which is forbidd'n IV. What Adultery is Adultery is the wrong of a Lawful Bed whether it be a Man's'own or anothers for if a Man that is an Husband has to do with a single Woman he wrongs his own Bed But if a single Man have to do with another Mans Wife the other Man's Bed is polluted with the stain of Adultery Now by this Prohibition of Adultery V. All impure Lust forbidden here as S. Ambrose and S. Austin testifie all things whatsoever are dishonest and immodest are forbidd'n Amb. lib. 1. Officior c. 50. in fine Aug. q. 71. super Exod. That these words are so to be understood VI. The Scriptures confirm this Commandment Gen. 38.24 Deut. 23.16 may be gather'd from the Sacred Scriptures of the Old and New Testament For besides Adultery there are other kinds of Lust punishd in Moses's Writings In Genesis there is the Judgment of Judah against his Daughter in Law In Deuteronomy there is that excellent Law of Moses That none of the Daughters of Israel should be Whore There is the like Exhortation of Tobias to his Son Tob. 4.13 Look to thy self my Son Ecclus 41.25 beware of all Fornication And Ecclesiasticus Be ashamd ' says he in respect of a whorish Woman And in the Gospel Christ our Lord says
