And, If thou be ashamed to confess them to any man, 1because thou hast sinned; say them daily in thine own mind. I do not bid thee confess them to thy fellow servant, that he should mock thee: confess them to God that cureth them.

- 1Hom. 2. in psal. 50.
The abuse of satisfaction is, that they have turned canonical satisfaction which was made to the congregation by open offenders, into a satisfaction of the justice of God for the temporal punishment of there sins. Behold here a most horrible profanation of the whole Gospel, and specially of ⟨p. 330⟩the satisfaction of Christ, which of it self without any supply is sufficient every way for the remission both of fault and punishment. But of this point I have spoken before.
