Strana 110 - Know ye not that your bodies are members of Christ? shall I then take away the members of Christ, and make them members of a harlot? God forbid. Or know ye not that he that is joined to a harlot is one body? for, The twain, saith he, shall become one flesh.

The complexion and plumpness, which jointly confer a youthful look, and which is the sole substitute of beauty ; for without this, even beauty produces no other effect than cold admiration : this complexion and plumpness are...
Strana 106 - Whatever hypocrites austerely talk Of purity, and place, and innocence, Defaming as impure what God declares Pure, and commands to some, leaves free to all. Our Maker bids increase; who bids abstain But our destroyer, foe to God and Man?
