Psalms119:36

Verſ. 36. Incline my heart] Through the exerciſes of thy Word, and the working of thy Spirit.

And not [illegible: 1 letter]o c[illegible: 1 letter]vetouſneſs] Which draweth away the heart from all Gods teſtimonies, and is the [illegible: 1 letter]opt of all evil, 1 Tim. 6.10. Some think it is put here for all other vices. The Chald[illegible: 1 letter]e hath it, And not to Mammon, that mammon of iniquity, as Chriſt calleth it, the next odious name to the Devil. Now to good, God inclineth mans heart efficiently (ſay the Schools) but to evil, defici[illegible: 2 letters]ly, ſc. by with drawing his grace; for he is a free Agent, and not bound to any. David prayeth God to ſuperſede him from his wickedneſs and Luther ſaith, hee was never tempted to it.
