Is it enough then that we kill no Man, in such sort as has been said?

It is not enough; for when God condemns Anger, Envy, Hatred, he requires thata we love our Neighbor as our selves and that web use Humanity, Lenity,c Courtesy, Patience,d and Mercy towards him, ande turn away from him as much as we may whatsoever may be hurtful unto him; in a word, that we be so affected in Mind as that wef stick not to do good also unto our Enemies.
