2 Timothy3:4

Verſe 4. Heady] Head long and head-ſtrong, [non-Latin text not transcribed]. raſh and inconſiderate, Qui non vident [non-Latin text not transcribed], that look not well about them, but make deſperate adventures.

Lovers of pleaſure] Not conſidering that the pleaſure paſſeth, [non-Latin text not transcribed] Chryſoſt. but the pain that attends it is perpetuall. Momentaneum est quod d[illegible: 1 letter]lectat, aternum quod cruciat. Let not men take pleaſure in pleaſure. It was not ſimply a ſin in Eſau to go a hunting [illegible: 1 letter] But yet the more he uſed it, the more profane he waxed, and came at length to contemn his birth-right. Who are void of the ſpirit, but ſenſuall ones, Jude 18, 19? Who ſay to God, Depart from us, but thoſe that dance? Job 21.10, 11. Better be preſerved in brine, then rot in honey. Theſe pleaſure-mongers are ſet laſt, as the worſt of all.
