Here we see the certainty of M. Hardinges guesses. He reapeth the thing, that was never sown: and gathereth of his authors the thing, that was never spoken.
Here we sée the certaintie of M. Hardinges gheasses. He reapeth the thinge, that was neuer sowen: and geathereth of his authours the thinge, that was neuer spoaken.
But touching the trueth of this whole matter, if a man list only to go by guess, as M. Harding doeth, why may he not thus imagine with him self, If this woman would thus dissemble in a case so dangerous, what needed her to take the Bread at her maids hand, and specially at that time, in that place, and in the sight of the whole people? Or how could she so openly receive it without suspicion? Or why might she not have brought it in a Napkin secretly about her self? The burden was not great: her feigning and hypocrisy had been the easier.
But touchinge the trueth of this whole mater, if a man liste onely to goe by gheasse, as M. Hardinge doeth, why may he not thus imagine with him selfe, If this woman would thus dissemble in a case so dangerous, what néeded her to take the Breade at her maides hande, and specially at that time, in that place, and in the sight of ye whole people? Or how coulde she so openly receiue it without suspicion? Or why might she not haue brought it in a Naptkine secretely aboute her selfe? The burthen was not greate: her fayninge and hypocrisie had beene the easier.
And thus much to answer one guess by an other.
And thus muche to answeare one gheasse by an other.
