Indirect Legislation
S
ir George Lindes x his plaine narrative to the world
of all passages upon death of his two sonnes Lindon
1655.
d. 13.
To the charge of living unmarried on the part of "The ministers & godly men about me."
p.1
To that charge of living unmarried and not living in chastity
and virtuously as a Christian ought to do: I confess that for
almost these twenty yeares I have lived unmarried, & I
thank Heaven, I have an healthy able body, & have
natural & carnel affections in me, & a love to
Women & their company, & Which he deserved to be
unmarried that lieth not
I confess I have been more vain & foolish
with them than I ought to have been, heaven forgive
me: But for committing fornication or Adultery with
any single or married woman, I protest before Heaven
[though perhaps few may believe it]: I am clear of
it. I never had any illegitimate issue, nor ever
had carnal knowledge of any woman, save of my
own wife, nor of her, but as was fitting for procreation,
seldom or never after I knew her to be
with childe.
