S. Ambrose openeth S. Pauls meaning, 1and showeth what he understood by this word, Sprite, in this wise: Situ benedixeris spiritu, hoc est, Si laudem Dei lingua loquaris ignota audientibus: If thou bless with thy Sprite, That is to say, If thou utter the Praise of God, in a tongue unknown unto the hearers. This I trow, is no Bombast, nor counterfeit stuffing: it is S. Ambroses Interpretation. Likewise S. Chrysostom expounding the same words, saith thus: Situ benedixeris spiritu &c.2 Est quod dicit, huiusmodi: Si peregrina lingua gratias agas, quam nec intelligas ipse, nec coeteris idem interprete•is, plebeius nō potest subijcere, Amen. If thou Bliss with thy Sprite &c. The meaning hereof (saith S. Chrysostom) Is this, If thou give thanks unto God (or pray) in a strange tongue, which neither thou knowest thee self, nor canst expound unto others, the unlearned cannot say, Amen. This, Chrysostom saith, is S. Pauls very meaning: M. Harding saith, No: it is a strange new fangled interpretation. 3Erasmus in his paraphrase turneth it thus: Situ decantes laudes Dei, sermone omnibus incognito, If thou singe out the praises of God, in a tongue unknown unto all thy hearers. 4Dionysius the Carthusian likewise saith thus: Situ Benedixeris Spiritu, id est, non verbis, quae ab alijs intelligantur, sed tantùm lingua. If thou Bliss with thy Sprite, That is to say, not with such words, as others may understand, but only with thy tongue.

This I trow, is no Bomebast, nor countrefeite stuffinge: it is S. Ambroses Interpretation. Likewise S. Chrysostome expoundinge the same woordes, saith thus: Si tu benedixeris spiritu &c.
