We make no cracks of our numbers, M. Harding, but humbly give God thanks, that, maugre all your practises, and policies, hath published, and proclaimed the name of his Son in every place through the world. The forth, and force thereof grieveth you now, as it did others your Fathers before you, that cried out in an agony,1 What shall we do? Al the world runneth after him. Of them S. Cyril saithe,2 Quicquid Christo credentium accesserit, sibi detractum putant: As many Faithful Believers, as are gotten to Christ, so many, they think, are lost from the selves.
