Rainoldes. Whether I abuse him, or he you, neither you only but all sorts of authors: the trial is easy. You say that the donation of Constantine is proved by them whom you named, and many mo besides, as I may read in the Chronicles. The many mo besides, whom I read alleged in your Chronicle-writer, are Zosimus, Nauclerus, S. Isidore, S. Jerome, Gratian, ⟨p. 402⟩Ivo, Picernus, and the Jews, Rabbi Abraham, and Aben Ezra. Do you rehearse his words, wherein he allegeth both these and the rest whom your self named: and as you shall find him to deal in this point with all sorts of authors, so speak of him hereafter, and credit him in others.
