II. Some things are full of Uncleanness, they abound in Filth and Pollution; such a Defilement and Uncleanness is Sin, it is not in one Part only, but in and upon the whole Man, it goes quite through; there is not the least part free from Head to Heel,1 They are all gone out of the way and become vile, vile all over. There is a double universality of this Uncleanness. 1. It defiles all Men. 2. All of Man, not one Man in the World but is unclean by Sin, and not one part in Man but is unclean; view him in his Understanding, Will, Judgment, Memory, Affection, Conscience, Eyes, Hands, Tongue, Feet, all parts of the Body, and Powers of the Soul are unclean.

Man is unclean as he comes into the World, but this Uncleanness grows and prevails more and more upon him, by actual Sin he becomes worse and worse, and is more defiled every day; it strives to captivate and bring the Souls of all Men under the defiling Power and Pollution of it.1
