from "The Sermons of John Donne"--
(Sermon IV, II, p. 121) "...though I have washed myselfe in the tears of Repentance, and in the blood of my Saviour, though I have no guiltinesse of any former sinnes upon me at the present, yet I have a sense of root of sinne, that is not grub'd up, of Originall Sinne that will cast me back again."
