4. It was added also by the Replier that Danaeus (upon the same place) calleth it a childish distribution. True (saith the Rejoynd.) but he meaneth by Apostolical, things determined by the Apostles, by their ordinary faculty, as ⟨p. 336⟩Pastors, and yet having the same authority with their writings: Now let the Reader mark, that the Defender his charge of unlearned rudeness, depended on this, if Apostolical traditions may be called Divine, as being commanded of God. To talk here of faculty, ordinary, pastors, authority equal to Scripture, &c. it is nothing else, but to bring him unto loss.

And is the great charge of a most unlearned Position come now to this: the contrary words in some sense may stand? Be sparing (my masters) in crying down your poor neighbours, for such extreme want of learning, when you opposite learning can scarce stand in any sense.
