1. The remainders of corruption 1of nature still lie like a poison, a leprosy, a pestilence in thee: thou art under cure indeed but thou art not sound from thy sore, thou art La•rus still. This very consideration made Paul weary of his life, when he cried out, O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from this body of death? Rom 7. And if in this respect we be not of Pauls mind, it is because we want of Pauls ⟨p. 722⟩goodness and grace. And thus corruption of nature is the more 2grievous, if we consider either the generality of the spreading the infection, or the incurableness of it, or the ill effects of it.
