"Some you shall have, that
after a great fall into a sin that hath bruised them sorely, will seem
very careful for a time where they set their foot, how they walk, and what
company they come in, but as soon as the soreness of their consciences
wears off, their watch breaks up, and they are as careless as ever; like
one that is very careful to shut up his shop strongly, and maybe sit up
late to watch it also, for two or three nights after it hath been robbed,
but then minds it no more." by William Gurnall (1617-1679)
And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.
2 Corinthians 12:21
