A commentary or, exposition upon the divine second epistle general, writtenA commentary or, exposition vpon the diuine second epistle generall, written

5^a Know you not that your body is the temple of the holy Ghost? It is a great profaneness to abuse the material Temple, made with mens hands: much worse to violate •he Spiritual Temple, made by the hand of God. s I have heard of some depopulators, •hat of the Quire of Saints have made a kennel for their dogs; that was nefarious enough. Yet so far as God loves this corporeal Temple better than that, this adulterous profanation exceeds the former. To turn the Holy Ghost out of his chamber, and to make it the Devils sty and stews; most fearful! O think in ••ticulo tentationis, it is the Temple of God I now profane, defile, abuse: what fire ••nnot this meditation quench?
