Two sorts of men multiply sin, and the third will bring wrath: a hot mind is as a burning fire, it will never be quenched till it be consumed: a fornicator in the body of his flesh will never cease till he hath kindled a fire.

There are two sortes [of men] that abounde in sinne, and the third bringeth wrath [and destruction:] a minde hote as fyre, that can not be quenched til it be consumed: an adulterous man that giueth his bodie no rest, til he haue kindled a fyre.
