S. 1Cyprian saithe, Haec est, frater, vera dementia, non cogitare, quòd mendacia non diu fallant: Noctem tam diu esse, donec illucescat dies: This is very mere madness, my Brother, not to consider, that lies cannot long deceive the world: (Remember) it is Night no longer, 2but until the Day spring. And therefore Chrysostom saith, as it is alleged before, Haeretici claudunt Januas Veritatis: Heretics shut up the Gates of the Truth. For they know right well, if the Truth may appear, their falsehood will soon be espied, 3and the Churches shall be none of theirs. Tertullian saithe, Ipsa Doctrina Haereticorum cum Apostolica comparata, ex diversitate, & contrarietate sua pronuntiabit, neque Apostoli alicuius Authoris esse, neque Apostolici Viri: The very Doctrine of Heretics compared together with the Apostles Doctrine, even by the diversity, and contrariety, that is in it, beareth witness of it self, that it never came, neither from any Apostle of Christ, nor from any Apostolic Man.
