Epiphanius likewise saithe, 1Melius est, Unum habere Peccatum, quàm multa. Melius est cadentem à stadio apertè sibi uxorem asciscere secundum Leges, &c. Et à Virginitate longo tempore agere Poenitentiam, &c. Et non quotidiè occultis jaculis vuluerari: Better it is, to have one Sin, then many Sins. Better it is, for a man falling from his course, openly to take unto him a wife according to the Law, &c. And a long time to repent him self of the breach of his Virginity, &c. And not to be wounded with privy darts every day.

S. Hierome saith, 1Sanctum Virginum Propofitum, & Coelestis, Angelorumque familiae Gloriam quarundam non bene se agentium nomen infamat. Quibus apertè dicendum est, ut aut nubant, si se non possunt continere: aut contineant, si nolunt nubere: The name of certain Virgins not well behaving them selves, defameth, and shameth the Holy purpose of Virgins, and the Glory of the Heavenly, and Angelical Penally. Whom we must plainly charge, that either they Marry, if they cannot Contain: or that they Contain, if they will not Marry.
