Unto that wherein he was touched / for his unskilfulness in dividing / in that both matters off government / and matters of faith (which he divideth / and by dividing opposeth) meet so friendly together in the government of the Pope: he answereth not. And yet having nothing to answer / he findeth him self the talk / of a whole sheet of paper. For first off all / how ridiculous is it that he saith / he did not put a case but an example? Then / whether pertains it / that he setteth down / what the Papists say off the pope, what the pope doth himself? That also which he affirmeth in so good earnest / that no government ought to be received / directly against the word off God: that he repeateth / and repeateth again / his negative argument of the popes supremacy: are they not all stray speeches / frayed out of there wits / carrying not the weight of a feather / to the proof off any thing in controversy: having no knot / either with the cause / or one of them with another?
VNto that wherin he was towched / for his vnskilfulnes in diuiding / in that bothe matters off gouernement / and matters of faithe (which he deuideth / and by diuiding opposethe) meete so frendlie together in the gouernement of the Pope: he answerthe not. And yet hauing nothing to answer / he findeth him selfe the talke / of a whole sheete of paper. For first off all / how ridiculous ys it that he saithe / he did not put a case but an example? Then / whether perteines it / that he settethe doune / what the Papistes saye off the pope, what the pope doothe himselffe? That also whiche he affirmethe in so good earnest / that no gouernement owght to be receiued / direcly againste the worde off God: that he repeatethe / and repeateth againe / his negatiue argument of the popes supremacie: are they not all strey spreaches / fraied owt of ther wittes / carying not the weight of a fether / to the profe off any thinge in controuersie: hauing no knot / either with the cause / or one of them with another?
