XVI.
Gaming and seeing Plays are two different
things, in regard of the one and the others
Conscience; and why? because the Conscience
of the one is more fearful and cautious than the
other; and the one hearkens to his Conscience
continually, and the other never; the one pre∣fers
the Duty of his Conscience before all the
Pleasures of his Life, and the other the con∣trary.
