After Lust hath drawn us a side from God, it doth entice us and wooe us; the word signifies baiting us, as men doe bait for fishes: so doth sin use us: puts on guises and maskes, making the sin to appear in another colour than it is.
Richard Capel — Tentations: Their Nature, Danger, Cure (1633), Chap. 3: Of the enticing of Lust (James 1)
