Verum illorum perditio qui non servantur, haud quaquam impedit, *quo minus Universalis vocetur Redemptio—Resolutio illa telluris qua passim omnia ad germinandum astate solvuntur, recte Universalis dicitur, etiamsi multae arbores—non germinent—&c. Anno Jubil•o Generalis omnium servorum liberatio erat, etiamsi multi in servitute ma•••tes, gratiam liberationis respuebant.

And p. 737. tells us how Aristophanes, contrary to the six Judges, appointed by Ptolemy; did adjudge the Crown to that Poet that the people liked worst.It seems there were but few in Bradwardin's days, who were of his mind, in confessing the antecedent natural impossibility of any ones Salvation, or any good act, which cometh not to pass; seeing (li. 3. c. 29. p. 735.) he answereth them that say, [why should the Opinion of a few, trouble the Church, and the far greater number that is against it], by referring them to the paucity of wise men and Believers, and saying that truth must be preached for the few (Elect) that will receive it.
