seeing no interpretation vvill help against the clear Testimonies of the Learned, by us alleged, confesseth they were men, (as if he, & his partners were more then men!) & that there is a little variety. So willing are men rather to cast dirt in the faces of others, then to confess any mistaking in themselves. Is this any thing, but the spirit of pride, ⟨image 29⟩thus masterly to judge the Lords worthies? 387. p. 18. This answer you think good to give: because you are resolved to sink the reputation of all men, ancient or latter, how learned, & zealous soever they were, rather than to confess your own mistaking.
