1. For his Innocency, Joh. 8. Which of you can convince 1me of sin? You may reprove, can you disprove? The world traduced him for a blasphemer, a Samaritan, a Sorcerer, an enemy to Caesar, a boon companion: so easy is it to avile, and revile, so hard to convince. The Church sweetly and truly commends him. Cant. 5, 10. My beloved is white and ruddy, the chiefest among ten thousand. Candidus 2sanctitate, rubicundus passion. He was white of himself; made read by the wounds of his enemies. It was not praise enough for him, that he was (as it is said of David) Ore rubicundo, of a ruddy colour: unless this read had been first grounded on white. His passion had lost the virtue of merit, had he not been innocent. But he was Agnus ille immaculatus. 1. Pet. 1. 19. A lamb, that lamb 3without blemish, without spot.

He was white of himselfe; made redde by the wounds of his enemies. It was not praise enough for him, that hee was (as it is said of Dauid) Ore rubicundo, of a ruddy colour: vnlesse this redde had beene first grounded on white. His passion had lost the vertue of merite, had he not beene innocent. But he was Agnus ille immaculatus.
