¶ Cole.
You say much and prove nothing. Your trueth is so open, that no man can see it, but your own side. I have no privilege, when reason and Law ⟨image 42⟩shall will me to do it, you shall find it. Now I stand bound to the contrary as you know.

The reply. Sarum.
I Speak not to much as your self can witness. Now much I prove shall rest upon the wisdom and judgement of the reader, both the trueth of our part, and the untruth of your part is so open, that now God be thanked the whole world is able to see it, onlesse there be sum such as hath eyes and will not see. Yet Justificata est sapientia Dei, à filiis suis.
