that counsels of perfection are inioined in the law, and therfore prescribe no state of perfection beyond the scope of the Law.
Answ. None of the counsels of perfection are enioyned in the tenne Commandements, though for some affinitie they may be reduced to some of them. For example: It is commanded that I shall not steale, that is, to take any of my neighbours goods against his will; but to giue away all my own to the poore, is beyond the compasse of the law: so likewise it is comman∣ded not to commit adulterie, but wee are not commanded to vow perpetuall chastitie and obedience. Such offices only that are necessarily required to the performance of any Commande∣ment, are comprehended within the same, but no others; though some men take occasion of the Commandement, to treat of the counsels of perfection.
