Albeit in contention of learning, I may be worst heard to speak, being the unworthyest of all my brethren: yet, this dare I be bold to say, because it is true, we are not so far to seek in learning, as they would have us appear to be.

Paul being driven to answer in his own defence in a like matter, in comparison between 1him and the false prophets, writeth on this sort, Hebraei sunt, & ego: Israelitae sunt, & ego: Semen ⟨image 97⟩Abrahae sunt, & ego: ministri Christi sunt, & ego. They are Hebrews, so am I: they are Israelites, so am I: they are the seed of Abraham, so am I: they are the ministers of Christ, so am I.
