"They who sin with caution,

 Grow impudently careless,

+=+ Not that I recall* - but I hardly think it necessary since they  
both relate to 'information conveyed to him through partnership 
agreement or partnership experience' (Law 75C). It may be that 
Edgar's realization of the above point caused him to want this 
linkage of the two. The quoted phrase is sufficiently drawn to 
include experience on a single prior occasion.
