As many silly mens Consciences are too full of scruples, not because they are tender, but ill-instructed; so many wicked mens Consciences are void of Scruples, not because they are clear, but callous; and so must every thing be that is cauteriz'd. Yea give me leave to say farther, Many desperate Malefactors have mounted the Gibbet without regret, not so much because they had no scruples in their Consciences, as rather because they had no Consciences to be scrupl'd; since one that's sear'd with an hot Iron (to use the figure of our Apostle) is in effect none at all. |
