Christ our Saviour, when he was thus charged, made answer, Si ego in Beelzebub eiicio daemonia, filii vestri in quo e•iciunt? If I through Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? So may we say to such as this day be adversaries to this cause, and speak against us.

And would God in y• greatest & specialest points of our controversies, all parts would be contented to stand to their judgment: so should all contention be soon at an end.
