| In-Text | And 'tis the Dictate of Common Sense, That of two evils of Punishment, we are in Prudence to choose the least. As rather to lose one Eye than Both, and rather Both than the whole Body; and rather the Body than the Soul. To suffer any thing, rather than Death; and Death it self, rather than Hell. A man having a Gangraene in any Limb of his Body, will not only permit, but hire the Artist to cut it off. And by consequence will confess it very much better and more desirable, to Pluck out his Eye, and to cast it from him, than, by keeping it in his Head, to be Cast into Hell. | And it's the Dictate of Common Sense, That of two evils of Punishment, we Are in Prudence to choose the least.
