Of the difference which is between a figure of any thing, and the thing it self, Chrysost. saith, Audisti fuisse figuram, ne ergo mirare, neque omnia require in typo: Neque enim typus esset, si omnia 1quae veritati accidunt haberentur. Ye have heard that it was a figure, therefore marvel not, & being a figure, require not all things to agree: for otherwise it were no figure.
