And is it sufficient to kill noe man in such sorte as hath bin spoken?

It is not sufficient: for when God condemneth wrath, enuie, hatred; hee requireth, that wee loue our neighbour as our selues, and that wee vse towards hima curtesie, gentlenes,b meeknes, patience,c and mercie,d and that whatsoeuer may hurte him, as much as in vs lieth, we turne it away from him. In a worde, that wee be so disposed in mind. that wee spare not to doe good even to our enemies.f
