Proverbs5:12
12. And say, how have I hated instruction , and my heart despised reproof !
Oh what a mad beast have I been to hate and sleight the fair warnings which were given me, and against mine own knowledg, to run headlong into this pit of destruction! Which are not the words of a true penitent mourning for, and turning from his sin, but only of a man who is grieved for the sad effects of his delightful Lusts, and tormented with the horrour of his own guilty Conscience.
I did with my whole Heart abhor all admonitions.
