The spiritual watchThe spirituall vvatch

§. 80. Again, as Machetes the Macedonian ⟨p. 124⟩appealed sometime from Philip, to Philip, ^qfrom Philip sleeping, to Philip waking: so compare we now Joseph and Joseph together, Joseph watching with the same Joseph somewhat neglecting this watch. Joseph himself that stood thus steadfast in a stronger temptation, yet slipped after swearing ^rby Pharaohs life in a feebler But the evil was not so evident, so open-faced in the one as in the other: and therefore ^sbeing not so carefully watched against or regarded, by being oft heard grew familiar, and gained admittance with him, who might otherwise in all likelihood have kept himself free from it, with much less difficulty and danger then he did from the former.

§. 80. Againe, as Machetes the Macedonian ⟨p. 124⟩appealed sometime from Philip, to Philip, ^qfrom Philip sleeping, to Philip waking: so compare wee now Ioseph and Ioseph together, Ioseph watching with the same Ioseph somewhat neglecting this watch. Ioseph himselfe that stood thus stedfast in a stronger temptation, yet slipped after swearing ^rby Pharaoes life in a feebler But the euill was not so euident, so open-faced in the one as in the other: and therefore ^sbeing not so carefully watched against or regarded, by being oft heard grew familiar, and gained admittance with him, who might otherwise in all likelihood haue kept himselfe free from it, with much lesse difficulty and danger then he did from the former.
