Here M.R. bringeth in a troupe of authorities together,1 to prove that false which I have said, and all true that he saith; long sentences are translated out of Castalion, D. Humphrey, Pelican, and Munster, whereby howsoever it fareth with his cause, the volume of his book is well increased. For whereto serve these testimonies alleged? That through negligence or ignorance of the writers & printers some faults may be found in the Hebrew Bibles, I think there be none that will deny: but what maketh all this to purpose, seeing there be a thousand ⟨p. 268⟩times moe such faults in your translations then can be found in the fountains? your long speeches and discourses either in other mens words, or in your own, when they come to scanning, are short enough, and therefore may in a short answer be discharged. Your comparison of Jews and Protestants in railing at the Pope and Roman Church, I pass over.
