Examples
-
And what was it that I delighted in, but to love, and be beloved? but I kept not the measure of love, of mind to mind, friendshipÂ’s bright boundary: but out of the muddy concupiscene of the flesh, and the bubblings of youth, mists fumed up which beclouded and overcast my heart, that I could not discern the clear brightness of love from the fog of lustfulness.
The Second Book 1909
