[ 859] The great danger of little Sinnes.

A Little rope sufficeth to hang a great Thief;* 1.1 a little dross abaseth much Gold, a little poyson infecteth much wholsome liquor; a little Heresie corrupteth much sound doctrine, a little fly is enough to spoil all the Alablaster box of ointment: So the smallest sin, the least peccadillo without Gods mercy, is sufficient to damn our souls to all eternity.
