The application of redemption

The contrite soul when its carried with this hateful detestation against its own abominations, by a spiritual kind of prudence, observes where the first stirrings and male strength of our corruptions appear in the birth and breeding of them, in our minds and hearts, where the root […] spawn of those loathsome abominations have their warming and hatching in the heart. There hatred improves all prudence that may be to stifle those distempers in the first stirrings of them, crush the Cockatrice in the shell, kill the Serpent in the egg, that they may never have being nor be brought forth into the world if it be possible. But if by policy, these spiritual enemies cannot be undermined, then this hatred brings the combined forces of confederated power of the whole man & his whole endeavour to destroy the nests of those noisome lusts, what head can contrive, heart desire, handwork, the endeavour accomplish, head, and heart, and hand, desires, endeavours, tears, prayers, in a deadly feud to pursue the […] enemies to their not being.
