[ 1343] Beloved Sins hardly parted withall.
LOok but upon a Rabbets skin,* 1.1 how well it comes off, till it come to the head,
and then there is haling and pulling, and much ado before it stirs: So it is,
that a Man may crucifie a great many lusts, subdue abundance of imperfections,
and may perform many good duties, and all this while come smoothly off; but
when it comes once to the head,* 1.2 to the Dalilah, the darling, the bosome beloved Sin,
then there is tugging and pulling, great regret, loath to depart; but if God have
any interest interest in such a Soul,* 1.3 he will pull the skin over his ears, either break
his neck, or his heart, before that any such Sin shall reign in his mortal body, or
have any dominion over him.
