3 Thus we have heard the malignancy of spiritual sicknesses, whether in sin, or for sin. Now let us take a short consideration, how far spiritual sicknesses, are more dangerous then corporal.

The Soul is; at all parts, more precious then the Body. It is that principal, most divine, and excellent half of man. Dumb vivisicat, anima: dumb vult, animus, dumb scit, mens: dumb recolit, memoria, dumb judicat ratio, dum spirat spiritus: dum sentit sensus. It is called for quickening, a soul, for knowing, mind, for remembering, memory, for judging, reason, for breathing, spirit, for feeling, sense, when the soul is sick: all these are sick with it. The soul is compared to heaven, the body to earth. The heaven is glorious with Sun, Moon Stars; so the soul with understanding, memory, reason, faith, hope, &c. The body like the earth, whereof it was made, is squalid with lusts. The earth hath no heat nor nourishment, but from heaven, nor the body comfort, but from the soul. How then? oh how terrible is the souls sickness, or death?

Dum viuisicat, anima: dum vult, animus, dum scit, mens: dum recolit, memoria, dum iudicat ratio, dum spirat spiritus: dum sentit sensus. It is called for quickning, a soule, for knowing, mind, for remembring, memory, for iudging, reason, for breathing, spirit, for feeling, sense, when the soule is sicke: all these are sicke with it. The soule is compared to heauen, the body to earth. The heauen is glorious with Sun, Moon Starres; so the soule with vnderstanding, memory, reason, faith, hope, &c. The body like the earth, whereof it was made, is squallid with lusts. The earth hath no heate nor nourishment, but from heauen, nor the body comfort, but from the soule. How then? oh how terrible is the soules sicknes, or death?
