Than S. John recounteth whoremongers.1 And he nameth the lowest kind, to the end we should understand the higher and viler as rape, adultery, incest, and Sodomitical: neither that we should exclude here gluttony, drunkenness, and all kind of riotousness, and nourishing of voluptuousness. ⟨p. 644⟩Where doubtless we see that S. Paul under the vocable of whoredom, comprehendeth all filthy lust and riot. But in our days whorehunting is made so common, that every most shameful whoremonger is admitted to the altar: a married priest that keepeth holy matrimony is expelled from the same. For the which we may thank Syricius, and other Popes: whom the Apostle hath grievously noted, in the first to Timothy. 4.
