1 Corinthians6:7
Verſe 7. [non-Latin text not transcribed]. There is utterly a fault] Gr. Adiſgrace, a loſſe of victory. q. d. By your litigious lawing one another, you betray a great deal of weakneſſe and impotency of affection. Theſe be ignoble quarrels, Ʋbi & vinc[illegible: 1 letter]re, inglorium eſt, & atteri ſordidum. See the Note on Rom. 12.21.
Becauſe ye go to law] Lightly, for every ſmall offence (which if Mahometans do, they are publikely puniſhed) and with ſpitefull vindictive ſpirits: whereas in going to law men ſhould not be tranſported with hate or heat; but as Tilters break their ſpears on each others breſts, yet without wrath or intention of hurt, ſo, &c. The French are ſaid to be very litigious, and full of Lawſutes.
