1This David decreed with him self: I walked (saith he) in the innocency of my heart, in the middest of the house of my God. I set not before mine eyes, an unrighteous thing: I hate those that work wickedness. It followeth: But that which is good. 2This is a general sentence of the Scripture, that, that which is good is to be followed, and not that which is evil. Which sentence truly may be opponed unto those which for them selves allege long times, manners and customs of the Fathers. For always evil is to baflye•,3 at whatsoever time, and by what manner soever it be admitted. It followeth. He that doth well. He also addeth another sentence, that he might exhort him the more forcibly to do well.4 As if he said: They are not all the sons of God, which have received Baptism.
