Hart. You do gather more of mine answers, then I meant. I pray make your own collections, and not mine.
Hart. You doo gather more of mine answers, then I meant. I pray make your owne collections, and not mine.
Rainoldes. I do gather nothing, but that which you have scattered. For, you began to try this point touching the Pope by the words of Scripture. The words (we agree) decide by the sense: the sense must be tried (you say) by the Fathers: the Fathers by the truth: the truth by the people: the people by the Councils: the Councils by the Pope. If one of us should make but a semblance of such an answer: you would sport your selves with it, and call it a uCirculation, and 1cry against our impudency, & 2whoop at it like stage players. But you may dance such rounds, and yet persuade men that you go right forward with great sobriety and gravity.
