They are distinguished in Repentance: for the wicked do but weep for their Sins past, but the godly purpose to sin no more: so Pharaoh, Saul, and Judas said, I have sinned: but Shadrach, 1Meshech, and Abednego said, We will not sin: therefore the Heart of the godly is called a contrite Heart, but the Heart of the wicked is called a Heart that cannot repent. Beside, as Christ cast out a Legion of Devils at once, so the godly would be purged for all their Sins together; but the wicked never consent to leave all, but as Naaman said, Let the Lord spare me in this, so ever he excepteth one Sin, which is his beloved Sin; like Herod, which reformed many things, and yet would not leave his Brother's Wife.2
