In deed Origen saithe, 1Potest aliquis de Castitate plus sapere, quàm oporteat sapere: A man may think more of Chastity, then is convenient. Likewise saith S.

Yea verily, and not without cause: For both Matrimony, and Fornication consist both of one thing. Chrysostome saithe, Haec ipsa Coniunctio Maritalis malum est ante Deum,
