Eust. Yea, I have heard our Preachers preach so, which say that she was a common Harlot, before she was converted to Christ, but when he converted her, he drove out seven Devils out of her, that is to say: the seven deadly sins, whereunto she was subject like a poor miserable sinner, given over to all filthiness. I think Theophrastus will not say the contrary.
