Nevertheless when I say a man may do many things outwardly clean against his hart, we must understand y• man is but driven of divers appetites, and the greatest appetite overcometh the less, and carieth the man away violently with her.
Neuerthelesse when I saye a man may do many things outwardly clean agaynst his hart, we must vnderstand y• mā is but driuen of diuers appetites, and the greatest appetite ouercōmeth the lesse, and carieth the mā away violently with her.
As when I desire vengeance, and fear also the inconvenience that is like to follow, if fear be greater I abstain, if the appetite that desireth vengeance be greater, I can not but prosecute the deed, as we see by experience in many murderers & thieves, which ⟨p. 48⟩though they be brought into never so great peril of death, yet after they have 1escaped, do even the same again. And common women prosecute their lusts because fear & shame are away, when other which have the same appetites in their hearts, abstain at the lest way outwardly, or work secretly being overcome of fear and of shame, and so likewise is it of all other appetites.
As when I desire vengeaunce, and feare also the incōuenience that is like to folowe, if feare bee greater I abstaine, if the appetite that desireth vengeaunce be greater, I can not but prosecute the dede, as we see by experiēce in many murtherers & theeues, which ⟨p. 48⟩though they be brought into neuer so great perill of death, yet after they haue 1escaped, do euen the same agayne. And common women prosecute their lustes because feare & shame are away, when other whiche haue the same appetites in their hartes, abstaine at the lest way outwardly, or worke secretly beyng ouercome of feare and of shame, and so likewise is it of all other appetites.
