T. G. Such a godly, charitable, christian Minister as Mr. B. deciphereth here, was Mr. Calvin, and one, I doubt not, wary of straining Christian liberty beyond its due extent: and yet speaketh he no otherwise than Mr. G. here doth, or rather not so cautiously as Mr. G. doth; as the Margin showeth, where his own words are alleged.

Such a godly, charitable, christian Minister as Mr. B. deciphereth here, was Mr. Caluin, and one, I doubt not, wary of straining Christian liberty beyond its due extent: and yet speaketh he no otherwise than Mr. G. here doth, or rather not so cautelously as Mr. G. doth; as the Margine sheweth, where his owne words are alledged.
