Napsal(a) Alexander Payne

Verse 4. Let not the thought be cherished in the mind after that these evils have been cast out from your soul by the Divine Goodness and Wisdom, that for any inherent righteousness in yourself the Lord has put them under the regenerate will; but because the Lord knows the ruin these evils would work in the soul, therefore out of pure mercy He desires to drive them out from your soul.
