surely
even
so
grievous

will
prove

that

sinneth
against

Holy
Ghost

is

you

which
you
have

God

and
you
are
not

you
are
bought

therefore
Glorifie

in

and

is

him

this
is
no
way
applied
to
single
persons

for
they
are
no
Harlots
as
they
are
single
Persons
,
But
I
have
a
few
things
against
thee
,
because
thou
hast
them
there
that
hold
the
Doctrine
of
who
taught
to
cast
a
stumbling
block
before
the
Children
of
to
eat
things
Sacrificed
to
Idols
,
and
to
commit
Fornication
.
that
there
was
some
in
the
Church
of
who
held
the
Doctrine
of
is
true
,
but
that
Marriages
with
persons
differing
in
Religion
,
was
that
Doctrine
or
Fornication
,
is
yet
to
prove
,
saith
that
marryed
the
women
is
little
to
the
purpose
,
that
Whoredome
mentioned
in
the
and
that
in
the
Called
Fornication
is
all
one
.
yet
they
will
afterwards
flourish
more
then
they
did
before
;
being
by
such
Chastisment
rendered
more
wise
,
but
if
you
desire
to
obtain
some
sort
of
victory
over
them
by
this
my
advice
to
Councel
you
shall
bring
your
wishes
to
effect
,
send
to
their
Camp
the
fairest
of
your
Daughters
,
as
trimly
decked
and
beautified
as
is
possible
,
who
by
their
Beauty
may
conquer
,
and
by
their
Love
allure
their
Hearts
,
let
these
wander
about
and
offer
themselves
to
the
conversation
of
the
youngest
and
bravest
amongst
them
:
and
as
soon
as
they
see
them
Enamoured
,
let
them
pretend
to
go
away
,
and
being
desired
to
stay
,
let
them
not
yield
,
except
they
will
be
perswaded
to
forsake
their
Country
Laws
,
and
the
service
of
God
from
whom
they
received
them
,
and
to
adore
the
Gods
of
the
for
by
this
means
they
shall
incense
Gods
wrath
against
themselves
,
having
given
this
advice
he
departed
.
Now
when
the
(
according
as
they
were
counselled
)
sent
out
their
Daughters
,
the
younger
sort
of
the
became
intangled
with
their
Beauty
,
and
conversing
with
them
,
desired
them
not
to
deny
them
the
pleasure
and
enjoyment
of
their
Beauty
,
the
young
women
seeing
them
enamour'd
made
semblance
of
a
desire
to
leave
them
,
and
depart
.
Whereupon
the
young
men
earnestly
intreated
them
to
tarry
,
and
promised
to
marry
them
,
swearing
they
would
not
only
love
them
as
their
Wives
,
but
render
them
absolute
Mistresses
of
themselves
and
all
their
Goods
,
these
Promises
they
seal'd
with
Tears
,
and
all
the
Women
answer'd
after
this
manner
,
valiant
young
men
,
we
want
not
at
home
either
Riches
,
or
the
Affections
of
our
Parents
and
Friends
,
neither
come
we
hither
to
you
for
want
of
these
things
,
or
to
make
sale
of
our
Beauties
:
but
considering
you
as
strangers
,
for
whom
we
have
a
great
esteem
,
we
have
not
disdained
to
shew
you
this
Civillity
,
now
therefore
because
you
say
you
love
us
and
are
so
troubled
at
this
our
departure
,
we
thought
good
not
to
gainsay
your
intreaties
,
if
therefore
you
will
plight
your
Faith
and
promise
us
Marriage
,
(
which
is
the
only
condition
that
can
detain
us
)
we
will
live
with
you
as
your
Lawful
Wives
,
but
we
fear
lest
when
your
Lusts
are
satisfied
,
you
will
with
Shame
and
contumely
send
us
back
again
to
our
Parents
,
which
so
reasonable
apprehensions
of
ours
you
ought
to
pardon
.
since
you
are
so
pleased
,
and
that
you
have
customs
so
different
from
other
Nations
,
that
you
use
only
certain
Meats
and
Drinks
,
it
is
necessary
if
you
will
Marry
us
,
to
Adore
our
Gods
,
for
by
no
other
Argument
can
you
perswade
us
,
that
you
Love
us
unfeignedly
,
except
you
Honour
as
we
do
,
the
same
Gods
;
neither
shall
you
be
blamed
,
if
you
honour
the
Gods
of
that
Country
into
which
you
are
come
,
considering
that
our
Gods
are
common
to
all
Nations
,
whereas
your
God
is
adored
by
none
but
your selves
,
choose
therefore
(
said
they
)
either
to
conform
your selves
in
opinion
with
other
men
,
or
seek
out
another
World
,
wherein
you
may
live
according
to
your
particular
ways
and
Customs
.
The
blinded
with
the
Love
which
they
bare
to
the
Virgins
,
liked
well
their
words
,
and
consented
to
that
which
they
said
,
suffering
themselves
to
be
seduced
,
according
as
they
were
invited
,
called
Zimri
,
of
the
Tribe
of
Daughter
of
a
Prince
of
the
Country
,
and
to
please
her
,
sacrificed
after
the
manner
of
the
Country
,
contrary
to
the
Law
of
God
.
during
this
state
of
affairs
,
being
afraid
lest
some
more
grievious
mischief
should
succeed
,
called
the
People
together
,
and
accusing
no
man
in
particular
(
for
that
he
was
unwilling
to
cast
those
into
desperation
,
who
whilst
they
thought
their
Fault
lay
hidden
,
might
be
reduced
to
a
better
Mind
)
he
told
them
that
it
was
a
thing
unworthy
their
Vertue
,
and
that
of
their
Ancestors
,
to
prefer
their
Pleasure
before
their
Religion
,
that
it
behoved
them
whilst
they
had
time
,
to
repent
,
and
to
shew
themselves
to
be
valiant
men
,
not
by
contemning
all
Holy
and
Divine
Laws
,
but
by
repressing
their
disordinate
Passions
,
that
it
was
a
strange
thing
that
having
lived
in
the
desart
modestly
,
they
should
now
in
a
plentifull
Country
grow
so
dissolute
and
disordinate
,
as
to
loose
that
merit
in
influence
,
which
they
had
acquired
in
Necessity
.

saith
he
)
use
thou
,
if
thou
pleasest
,
thine
own
Laws
,
whereunto
by
long
use
thou
hast
added
Authority
,
without
which
thou
hadst
long
ago
suffered
Punishment
for
them
,
and
learnt
at
thine
own
cost
,
that
the
ought
not
to
be
deluded
by
thee
,
for
my self
thou
shalt
never
tie
me
to
thy
Tyrannical
Decrees
,
for
hitherto
hast
thou
endeavoured
nothing
else
,
but
under
pretext
of
Law
and
Religion
to
bring
us
into
Servitude
and
subjection
,
and
thy self
to
Power
,
and
Soveraignty
,
by
forbidding
us
the
pleasure
,
and
liberties
which
all
men
that
are
free
ought
to
enjoy
,
was
there
any
worse
in
our
thraldome
than
the
power
thou
assumest
to
punish
every
man
,
by
the
Laws
of
thy
own
making
,
whereas
thou
thy self
art
more
worthy
to
be
punished
in
that
thou
despisest
those
of
all
other
Nations
,
and
wilt
have
none
but
thine
observed
,
and
so
preferrest
thiy
particular
Judgment
before
that
of
all
other
men
whatsoever

I
as
touching
that
which
I
have
done
,
in
that
I
suppose
it
be
well
done
,

is
true

,
that
I
sacrifice

Rev.
The
Plot
was
that
should
take
the
fairest
of
their
Virgins
and
dress
them
richly
,
and
send
them
to
dance
about
the
Tents
of
that
he
might
provoke
the
whom
he
knew
to
be
great
Admirers
of
Beautifull
Women
.
I
will
shew
you
for
all
this
might
marry
both
with
and
that
the
Children
begot
of
them
,
might
in
time
be
admitted
into
the
Congregation
.
And
that
both
these
are
true
.
And
the
reason
is
rendred
,
why
they
might
not
be
admitted
sooner
,
shall
not
enter
into
the
Congregation
of
the
Lord
,
even
to
their
Tenth
Generation

shall
they
not
enter
