I add only what Bellarmine saith of the most of these Authors together. Dionysius his book (saith he) Eusebius his Homilies, and Cyprian's Sermons of Christs Cardinal works, nare with some counted doubtful, yea or counterfeit writings: […] nor is it certain whether they be theirs, whose names they bear. Yea of some of them he 2saith else-where, that pit is certain qthey are not. And yet are these of the principal Authors that this Defendant to uphold his tottering fabric produceth; albeit the things alleged out of them do not greatly stand him in steed, as shall appear when we come at them. But such counterfeit feips do they commonly tender us, and will needs enforce us to accept them for curr•nt […]; when they know that their own Critics have marked and bored them for such, neither will they pass in payment among themselves.
