Again he saithe, Sunt, meo judicio, illa de Constantino, Apocrypha: Sicut etiam fortassis quaedam alia longa, & magna scripta Sanctis, Clementi, & Anacleto Papae ascripta. Ipsae enim Epistolae, applicatae ad tempus illorum Sanctorum, seipsas produnt: By my judgement these Charters of Constantine are forged: as perhaps are also other lo•ge, and great Letters, that bear the name of S.
