From which discourse,1 yet let this be learned, that many Protestants in our days, come far behind Saul in his confession: for he made it particularly, and of ⟨p. 270⟩that sin which was most brought against him of all other, by Samuel: but those, of whom I speak, make either no confession, or in general only, as that we are all sinners; or if of particulars, they shall be such as concern them not: as if a worldly man should pray against pride and drunkenness, or when they say the Confession in the Church after the Minister, never marking what they say: and the best of them do but as he did, that is, confess particularly without repentance. And those that practise these manners of confession, are many thousands. These come behind Saul in their confession, as they may easily see.
