If I say they be fallacions / they be referred unto that place / and whether they be or no / and also how corruptly / and otherwise then is meant they be gathered / it shall afterward appear. In the mean season in a small matter / here is a great fault / not only to invent new places / but of one place to make three / and may as well make a thousand.
If I say they be fallacions / they be referred vnto that place / and whether they be or no / and also how corruptly / and otherwise then is meant they be gathered / it shall afterward appeare. In the meane season in a small matter / heere is a great fault / not only to inuent new places / but of one place to make three / and may as well make a thousande.
And to the end the pith and weight of M. Doctors arguments may be the better seen / I will likewise give the reader a say of them / noting the places of the fallacions / whereunto they be referred. Which I do against my will / and compelled / for that master Doctor to discredit the truth / would make his reader believe / that those which think not as he doth in these matters / are not only unlearned / but contemners of all good learning. In deed there is no great learning in these final things / & they are of that sort / which although it be a great shame not to know / yet it is no great commendation to have knowledge of them.
And to the ende the pithe and waight of M. Doctors argumentes may be the better seene / I will lykewise geue the reader a say of them / noting the places of the fallacions / whereunto they be referred. Which I do agaynst my will / and compelled / for that maister Doctor to discredite the truthe / would make hys reader beleeue / that those which thinke not as he doth in these matters / are not only vnlearned / but contenurers of all good learning. In deede there is no greate learning in these final things / & they are of that sort / which although it be a great shame not to know / yet it is no great commendation to haue knowledge of them.
