Filthiness of marriage, according to the church (Matthias Aquensis; Vincent, The morning-exercise against popery, 1675)
Text: "Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women..." Daniel 11:37 "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry..." 1 Timothy 4:1-3
Quote:
[...] Matthias Aquensis, who doth profess his opinion, that such who marry after their Vow of Continency, do offend more than such a one as through Humane frailty doth deviate, (as he terms it) which in plain English is, who through the power of burning lust is unclean with a hundred divers persons. Qui post continentiæ votum, devovet potestatem corporis cuivis mulieri magis offendit, quam iste qui humana fragilitate deviaret cum centum diversis personis. Matthias Aquensis. [...]
