Hart. S. Austin, and Optatus, against the Donatists, do speak reason: that, unless they can prove their right by Christs testament, they may not shut the Catholics out from his inheritance, and claim his goods unto them selves. For it is meet that the will of the testator should be kept. But a learned lawyer, one gFrancis Baldwin, who hath set forth Optatus, and written notes upon him, doth show that a testament may be either nuncupativum (as he calleth it) or scriptum; either set down in writing, or uttered by word of mouth. What say you to testamentum nuncupativum?

Rainoldes. I grant that ha testament may be made without writing, so that it be done before a solemn number of witnesses. But the testament of Christ is written, I hope: and ⟨p. 464⟩so do both Optatus and Austin speak of it. Wherefore your learned Lawyer may keep that law in st•re, until his client need it.
