Solomon saith ye the beginning of the words of an unwise man is foolishness / ¹but the later end of them is mere madness: even so it falleth out by you: for whilst you suffer your self to be carried headlong of your affections / you hurl / you know not what / nor at whom / what so ever cometh first to hand / & speak things that the eyes and ears of all men / hear / & see / to be otherwise. Whilst you compare them to Anabaptists & Donatists / some friend of yours might think / you said truly / because such always seeking dark and solitary places / might haply have some favourers / which are not known: But when you join them with y• papists / which are commonly known to all men / whose doctrine they impugn / ⟨p. 19⟩as well as you / whose marks & badges they can less away with / then you / whose company they fly more then you / whose punishment they have called for more then you for your part have done / and therefore are condemned of them as cruel / when you / oftentimes carry away the name of mildness and moderation / which forsooth know (as you have professed) no commandment in the scripture / to put heretics to death: when I say / you join them thus with papists / you do not only leese your credit in these untrue surmises / (wherein I trust / with the indifferent reader you never had any) but you make all other things suspected / which you affirm / so that you give men occasion to take up the common prover be against you / I will trust you no further then I see you.
