Augustinum, the said Epistle of Paulinus being mingled with a whole Book of the Epistles of S. Augustine: Or, if upon any other like […], I have alleged either Liberius for Athanasius, or the Arians for the Euty […], or any one Father, or Doctor, for an other, such errors, being bold of malice, were never hitherto accounted damnable.

John in stead of Daniel: That S. Chrysostom nameth Habakkuk for Zephaniah, and Hagar for Sarah.
