But least M. Harding take occasion hereof, to say, This is a Fantastical, and a Vain kind of seeing, Let him remember the words that S. Hierome writeth to Paula, and Eustochium, touching their abode at Bethlehem.1 Magos tria deferentes munera in vision beatis oculis vidisti. Ipsa eadem munera Fide Deo obtulisti: Cum i•sdem Magis Deum Puerum in Presepio adorasti. Thou sawest with thine happy eyes the Wise men carrying their three sorts of presents: Thou tookest the same presents, and offeredst them unto God by Faith: with the same Wise men thou Adoredst God being a Child in the Manger. She saw the Wise men, and yet saw them not: She received their Presents, and yet received them not: She Adored the Child in the Manger, and yet the Child was not there. Thus she did, not verily, or in deed: and yet not vainly, nor by way of Fantasy notwithstanding: but truly, and effectually, by Presence of Faith.
