Sin is against man's relative good in the world; man's weal or woe lies much in relations: by sin, that which was made for an help, proves an hindrance: Sin hath spoiled society: one man is a Woolf, nay a Devil to another. Sin will not ⟨p. 253⟩suffer Husband and Wife, Parents and Children to live quietly, but sets them at variance: they of a mans own house and bosom, that eat the bread at his Table, are the worst Enemies.

Others dye in their full strength, besides the havoc that is made by War.
