Vain thoughts, as Satan's soldiers, may quarter upon a man,1 whose heart is washed from wickedness, will he, nill he, but they are not welcome guests, but wearisome guests to him, so far forth as washed.
Vain thoughts, as Satans souldiers, may quarter upon a man,1 whose heart is washed from wickednesse, will he, nill he, but they are not welcome guests, but wearysome guests to him, so farre forth as washed.

Whosoever therefore can find, that he doth truly hate and decline vain thoughts, ought not hence to conclude, that his heart is not washed from wickedness, nor that he hath not a new heart, but rather to conclude with the Apostle, Rom. 7.17. It is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me; it is no more I, as washed and sanctified, that welcome these guests, but it is sin that dwelleth in me that doth it.
