Now, touching the Scripture, by M. Ivel, and by all them of that side alleged, for the Service to be had in the Vulgar tongue, in the .14. Chapter of the first Epistle to the Corinthians, S. Paul treateth of the use of tongues, so as it was in the Primitive Church a special gift. As the faithful folk came together to pray, and to hear God's Word, some one man suddenly stood up, and spake in the Congregation, with tongues of many Nations, Spiritu insusurrante, as Chrysostom saith, that is by inspiration, or prompting of the Spirit, so, as neither others, that were present, neither him self, after the opinion of Chrysostom, understood, what he said. That gift the Apostle did not forbid. For that every gift of God is good, and nothing by him done in vain: but dehorted the Corinthians from the vain, and ambitious use of it: and therefore did much extenuate the same, and preferred prophesying, that is, the gift to interpret and expound Scriptures, far before it. It was not in the Church, but in the Apostles time, or a very short while after them, and that altogether by miracle, the holy ghost being the worker of it.

That gifte the Apostle did not forbidde. For that euery gifte of God is good, and nothinge by him done in vaine: but dehorted the Corinthians from the vaine, and ambitiouse vse of it: and therefore did muche extenuate the same, and preferred propheciynge, that is, the gifte to interprete and expounde Scriptures, farre before it. It was not in the Churche, but in the Apostles time, or a very shorte while after them, and that altogeather by miracle, the holy ghost beinge the worker of it.
