Temptations

It is scarely possible for any man to put an exact difference between the biting of the serpent and the concupiscence and depravity of his own mind. I have not been able to make any distinction between the things the heart gives birth to and the evil tares the enemy sows and casts in; it is most uncertain what I should attribute to my self and what to him.

William Spurstowe, The Wiles of Satan, p. 62
