EVSE. Me think it an extreme point of madness for a man, y• his body be diseased, to hunt, inquire and seek about for a sober, wise, ¹prudent & cunning Physician, that may cure & heal it, & to be so necly gent in those things that pertain ⟨image 35⟩to his soul. For many care not to what priest they go unto, be he learned or unlearned, wise or foolish, mo didst or light, of good conversation or of naughty living, so that to satisfy the custom they come to one, & receive their absolution, and go away never the better instructed nor with the more penitent hearts.
