The seventh Commandement con∣cerneth Chastitie, whereby God provideth for a pure propaga∣tion and conservation of man∣kinde, forbidding all bodily pol∣lution under the name of A∣dultery.

Have I beene modest, sober, shamefast, possessing my body in chastitie, shutting mine eyes, and stopping mine eares, and restrai∣ning my other senses from al ob∣jects, Page  113 and occasions of lust, brid∣ling my tongue from lustful mo∣tions, and lascivious speeches, forbearing all manner of daliance and wantonnes; abstaining from selfe-pollution, fornication, or a∣ny other naturall, or unnaturall defilement of my body, either in deede, or desire?

And being married, was I wise in my choise? and haue I kept the marriage-bed undefiled, through a sanctified, sober, and seasonable use thereof?

Or, Am I not guilty of mani∣fold acts of uncleannesse? at least of vncleane thoughts, immodest eyes, eares, touches, & embraces, of wanton speeches, gesture, ap∣parrell, and behaviour?

Have I not run into the mani∣fold occasions of adultery & un∣cleannes, as by idlenes, gluttony, drunkennes, choise of such meats drinkes, perfumes, or any other thing that will provoke lust, effe∣minate dancing, frequēting wan∣ton Page  114 company, or places of un∣cleane provocations, and of un∣seasonable conversing with the other sex alone?
