Psalms52:3

Verſ. 3. Thou loveſt evil more than good] Indeed evil only, and not at all good, whatever thou pretendeſt. Thy heart is naught, and thence it is that thy tongue is ſo miſchievons; as ſtinking breath cometh from corrupt inwards.

And lying, rather than to ſpeak righteouſneſs] For thou haſt cunningly inſinuated, for thine own baſe ends, and againſt thine own Conſcience, that thoſe innocent and faithful Prieſts were of the combination; and ſo haſt built thy ſelf upon their ruines, thou falſe Sycophant, artifex doti. Selah.
