Moreover, if he kill, which when he can save, doth not save: and no man saveth, whom either he hateth, or doeth not love: hereby also it followeth, that we are murderers also of ⟨image 77⟩all them whom either we hate or do not love. And to this rule is the meaning of the three Chapters next following to be required.
