When the man "drew a bow at a venture and smote the King of
Israel between the joints of the harnesss" (i Kings xxii 34) he
did it [Greek: eneka ton apdkteinai] the King of Israel, in the
primary sense of [Greek: eneka] that is to say, the King's death
was _in fact the result_, but could not have been the motive, of
the shot, because the King was disguised and the shot was at a
venture.

of virtue and vice, of moral good and evil." See the whole Sermon
on Resentment.

using [Greek: epithumia] and its verb, equivocally as there is no
following his argument without condescending to the same device,
I have used our word lust in its ancient signification Ps. xxiv.
12, "What man is he that lusteth to live?"
