Not illustrated.1875 Excerpt: ... LECTURE III. THE ORGAN OF SIN. Facillimum est exsecrari carnem, difficillimum autem non carnaliter sapere. AUG. De Vera Rel. xx. 40. THE ORGAN OF SIN. %ii not sin: %rtfoK reign in gonr mortal bobg, ijrat gi sjjodo obcg it in % lusts tljraof.--Rom. vi. 12. The mortal body is at once the seat of sin and the Lect. III. organ of sin.
