Thomas. Thou doest here what matters these people here have declared unto thee, Eusebius: Thou haddest almost won me at the beginning of this disputation, & confirmed me in thine opinion, when that I heard thee propound the words of Saint Augustin. But now, after that I heard their replyings, I am more uncertain then before. Wherefore I must here the rude of that cause, & the last sentence, the which is given by the word of God. I have determined to declare unto you the cause of my voyage. as I have promised, after that Eusebius shall have done with you: But I am content to defer it until tomorrow, to the end I may return unto you more resolved. ⟨image 206⟩Wherefore I pray thee, Eusebius, that thou prepare thy self to fight with them valiantly by the sword of the word of God, and that we may see the end of that Purgatory, and also of the Limb, whereof the matter hath been broken off, & hath not ben followed nor resolved. Yet nevertheless this is one point, the which I desire almost as much the resolution, as of the Purgatory. And to the end you may have the more leisure to debate of the matter, I will hold you no longer. But because that it is now so late, therefore me thinketh that it shall be better to take the time at our pleasure.
