The application of redemption

2. This untameable evil of the tongue hath not his dates and periods, his spring and fall as it were, but sets on fire the whole course of nature, i. e. grows up with us from our beginnings, and goes along with us in our daily ⟨p. 154⟩course until we lie down in our graves. When children can know nothing nor learn to do nothing, yet they will easily take in naughty words and tattle them when they know not what they talk. In a word this is the full meaning, so near as I can guess, whereas the feebleness of our childhood unfits us for the knowing and practicing of some evil, our […] years frees us from some, as childish sports and vanities, decrepit age utterly […] us to most, the […] evil of our tongues, sends in a vein and currant of wickedness, through our whole course, the folly and […] of our child-hood unfits us not for this, or our riper years frees us not, but such count it as suitable to their condition, our decrepit age hinders us not, but the vanity of the tongue casts a venom through all, nor is a man wearied with such […] as that he craves end or ease, but is as fresh at night as he was in the morning, in his youth as he was in his childhood, in his decaying age as he was in his riper years. This hellish fire […] few ell and matter to nourish it in a mans whole course, therefore it's said it's set on fire of Hell. Because our natures are easily tainted with this poison and takes it in almost unawares, you cannot keep children from learning the language especially that's nought which they hear, nor can you force them to leave it or forget it, they grow up to ripeness and readiness in it without either care or pains, Joseph swears, the Court oath, and the children speak half Ashdod and half Hebrew.
