1If some searching truth delivered in public, press him, or some sincere hearted friend persuade him to a further inquiry, he seeks after the truth, as a coward doth for his enemy, being a frayd to find it. Loath he is, to be in the society of such, whom he conceives, to be either Judicious in their dispute, or Zealous in their course, against this trash. Secretly desirous, that other should not occasion conference, or that such should not enter into serious communication of these things, & if they do, he is weary of it,2 & blames the Author of the discourse, as that more savoury or seasonable talk were shut out: When he goes for counsel, and direction, it is to some such Authors, who write for the things he would ⟨image 17⟩practise, or consul• only with those men, that profess to maintain them, & so they make up the match at midnight.
