A just defence of certain passages in a former treatise concerning the nature and use of lots, against such exceptions and oppositions as have been made thereunto to Mr. I.B.

3. Many famous, learned and godly concurring with Mr. B. I name not, because I know not many; howbeit indeed all I know, I name. And for those that concur with me in the justification of a Lot used in Game; I made no special or particular relation of them, not because none such were, for there are divers, but because I was not so much to deal with them that concurred, as with those that either did indeed, or might seem to oppose.
