Sentence:  ... this distorting of equivocall words, which passeth commonly for a triviall <WSD>peccancy</WSD>, if it be well examined, will be found a very dangerous admission; for me thinks this may be termed a verbal adultery, as it vitiateth and corrupts the property of another, which would have remained innocent without that sollicitation, and therefore seemeth much a souler fault, than a single incontinency of our own words. 
Meaning of the word marked with <WSD> tags:  A sin or moral transgression.
