Again Titus .iij, for we our selves also were in times past unwise, disobedient, deceived, in danger to lusts, and to divers manners of voluptuousness, living in maliciousness and envy, full of hate, hating one another. But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour, to manward ⟨image 60⟩appeared, not by the deeds of righteousness which we wrought, but of his mercy he saved us, by the fountain of the new birth, and with the renewing of the holy ghost which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour, that we once justified by his grace, should be heirs of eternal life through hope. This is a true saying: but I will make an end, for I am to tedious.
