James3:11
Verſe 11. Doth a f[illegible: 1 letter]untain ſend forth] The fountain or rather the botch of ſenſuall and ſinfull pleaſure doth. Sin is a bitter-ſweet, [non-Latin text not transcribed]. the poiſon of aſpes, which firſt tickleth, and then killeth. All creature comforts are dulcis acerbitas, ſaith one.Tertull. Amariſſima voluptas, ſaith another.
Principium dulce eſt, at finis amor is amarus: Leata venire Venus, triſtis abire ſolet.
