¶ Sarum.
IT grieveth you that I should rest upon the negative, and so put you to your proofs. Wherein notwithstanding ye allege against me the custom of y• schools yet you know Christ used the same kind of reasoning in his school. As when he said to the Pharisies, Hoc Abraham non fecit. This thing, Abraham never did. And again when be answered them in the case of divorce, A principio non fuit sic, it was not so from the beginning, he stood only upon the negative.
