It is not for nothing, 1that Epiphanius writeth, Repudiant Nuptias: at non Libidinem. In honore enim est apud illos, non Castitas, sed Hypocrisis: quam tamen appellari volunt Castitie? They refuse Marriage, but not lust, or pleasure. For they esteem, not Chastity, but Hypocrisy: And yet the same Hypocrisy they will have called Chastity.

Hereafter it were better, there were no Virgins at all. The nae (of Virginity) continueth still: But Virginity it self in their body is quite gone. They live more in pleasure,
