For first, they insteed of giuing good exam∣ple (which they are bound to doe) offend and scanda∣lize others: Secondly the good commeth not from them as any causes or proper instruments of it, but is to be as∣cribed to Gods goodnesse and wisedome onely, who can and often doth out of darkenesse bring light, and out of sinne draw good. Lastly, theeues, robbers, mur∣therers and oppressors, giue occasion of enacting and executing of good lawes, yet no thankes to them, for they had no such intention: secondly, in regarde of themselues, their sinnes are farre more vile and horrible, then the good that commeth accidentally by it.
