In such good Substantial sort Pope Paulus. 3. not long sithence, reasoned against the Emperor Charles the Fifth, 1En ego supra Pastores meos: Behold, saith God Almighty, I will punish my Priests, and Bishops, for their negligence, and wickedness: Ergo, saith Pope Paulus, The Prince, or Emperor may not punish them.

In this your manner of Reasoning, M. Harding, there are wellnigh as many Errors, as there be words. The first is, Ignoratio Elenchi: which is the grossest Fallax of all the rest: Secondly, ye conclude without either Mood, or Figure: as a very child may easily see. Thirdly, ye Reason á Meris Particularibus, or, A non Distributo ad Distributum. Fourthely, these words, Rule, or Charge of the Church, are words of double, and doubtful meaning. And therefore your Syllogismus, such as it is, must needs stand of Four Terms: which error in Reasoning is too simple for a child.
