So saith S. Hierome, Postquàm conuersi fuerint, & Clarum Christi Lumen aspexerint,1 pascent in vijs, & in semitis sanctarum Scripturarum: & dicent, Dominus pascit me, & nihil mihi deerit: When they shall be turned, and shall behold the clear light of Christ, they shall feed in the paths, and ways of the Holy Scriptures, and shall say, The Lord feedeth me: and I shall want nothing.
So saithe S. Hierome, Postquàm conuersi fuerint, & Clarum Christi Lumen aspexerint,1 pascent in vijs, & in semitis sanctarum Scripturarum: & dicent, Dominus pascit me, & nihil mihi deerit: When they shalbe turned, and shal beholde the cleare light of Christe, they shal feede in the pathes, and waies of the Holy Scriptures, and shal saie, The Lorde feedeth me: and I shal vvante nothinge.
Again he saithe, Circundabit sibi, quasi murum firmissimum, Scripturarum doctrinam: ne ad interiora eius possit hostis irrumpere:1 He will enclose him self with the Doctrine of the Scriptures, as with a strong wall: that the Enemy may not enter into his heart. Again he saithe, Haec est via: Ambulate in ca. Neque ad Dextram, neque ad Sinistram. Tunc omnes Errores,2 & Idola, & Similitudines Veritatis comminnes, atque disperges, & ita judicabis immunda, ut a menstruatae mulieris sordidissimo Sanguini compares: This is the way: walk in it. Go neither to the Right hand, nor to the Left. Then shalt then break, and scatter all Errors, and Idols, and Counterfeit likeness of the Truth: and shalt judge them to be so filthy, that thou shalt liken them to most vile, and loathsome blood.
