After this he toucheth, or collecteth •ls• the punishments appointed for the wicked:1 and verily in one word compriseth all together, whilst he sayeth, without. For by this only vocable he excludeth the wicked out of the heavenly country, and includeth or encloseth them in hell, and hell torments unspeakable, endless and innumerable. And S. John here followeth the lord in the gospel saying:2 I say unto you, that many shall come from the East and from the West, and shall rest with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven: and the children of the kingdom shall be caste out into the outward darkness, there shall be weighing & gnashing of teeth.3 So likewise in the parable of the ten virgins, the gate is said to be shut, and the foolish virgins shut out of the joys celestial. Even the•e he commandeth the unprofitable ⟨p. 687⟩servant to be cast out into the outward darkness. Likewise in the .13. of Luke, the Lord sayeth, how the unbelievers shall be expulsed out.
