1The next fault is, fullness of bread, this is reckoned as a fault, and either it is so indeed, or the Spirit of God was deceived, who put it down here in the catalogue of Sodomitish crimes. You must either grant that fullness of bread is a foul sin, or else you must tell the Prophet that himself and the Spirit by which he spake were both in an error.2 'Tis attributed to Dives in the Parable, he fared deliciously every day. 'Tis charged on wealthy men, as one of the sins that shall procure their howling and misery, you have nourished your selves in the day of slaughter, 3meaning, they gave themselves over to feasting and banqueting every day. A daily continual stuffing the belly with store of savoury and delicate food, is hurtful for the body and soul too. Use abstinence, feed sparingly, fare hard and short sometimes. And so much for the second sin of Sodom, fullness of bread.
