Romans6:7

Verſe 7. Is freed from ſin] Anacreon ſaith the like, [non-Latin text not transcribed]; Death is the accompliſhment of mortification. It doth at once, what death doth by degrees. Herbs and flowers breed worms, which yet at laſt kill the herbs and flowers: So ſinne bred death: but at laſt death will kill ſin. A mud-wall whiles it ſtandeth, harboureth much vermine; which when it falleth, flee away: So doth corruption, when once theſe cottages of clay fall to ruine.
