That M. Ivel there said, is proved sufficiently, onlesse M. Harding be able to bring some example, one, or other, to prove the contrary. Neither is the matter so hard of our side to be proved. Thomas of Aquine, & Nicolas Lyra, M. Hardinges own witnesses, for some good part, will prove it for me.

In deed we find, that where as holy Ephrem Deacon of the Church of Edessa, wrote many things in the Syriacal tongue,1 he was of so worthy fame and renown, that (as S. Hierome witnesseth) his writings were rehearsed in certain Churches openly, Post lectionem Scripturarū. after the Scriptures had been read: whereof it appeareth to Erasmus, that nothing was wont then to be read in the Churches, beside the writings of the Apostles, or at least of such men, as were of Apostolic authority. But by this place of S. Hierome, it seemeth not, that Ephrems works were used as a part of the Common Service: but rather as Homilies, or exhortations to he read after the Service, which consisted in manner wholly of the Scriptures. And whether they were turned into Greek, or no, so soon, it is uncertain.
