The cause of these kyndes.

If it be against nature, the diuill & mans wretched mind is the cause. Alas what pleasure should any wretch haue to meddle with any brute beast, or to pollute him self wilfully, I knowe no remedy for this but great repentance, for the vengeance of God hangeth ouer the heades of them that so doth. For this sin Sodome and Gomor did sinke to hell so∣denly. If polutions do come to any man thorow sickenes, or of abundance of nature, if it be not wilfully done nor no de∣lectacion had in it, it is no sinne. If it do come sleping or wa∣king, thorow imbecility and weakenes, hauing no delectaci∣on nor pleasure, nor consenting to sinne, it is no offence, if it do come sleping, of any foule dreame, and no delectacion or pleasure had before nor after, it is no sinne.
