☞Ireneus. Ye know right well both of you, how I have always behaved my self in this variety of religion. Seeking nothing so much as to live in peace and quietness, for the maintenance whereof I have contemned neither of the parties: but used my self with indifferency towards ⟨image 21⟩them both, having always this desire, that by some good means these quarrels might be qualified, and contentions accorded, that so much do alienate the hearts of the faith full, and cause the wicked an unbelievers to mock our christianity. And with the like good will I will be present at this your collation, if it please you.
