Reader, I shall show thee what credit these men are of by this instance. As for the time when they say he was stigmatized for Sodomy, it was when he was a Papist, and therefore if it had been true, it had been a greater dishonour to them then to us. But its a mere forgery of the Devil and a Friar. Hierom Bolseck a Friar, seemed to turn Protestant, and coming to Geneva, he began to preach the Pelagian doctrine there, and openly contend against the Pastors in the Congregation; and being confounded by Calvin, the Magistrates imprisoned him, and banished him for sedition. Then he betakes himself to the neighbour Towns, to play the same game there: but the Magistrates of Bern also banish them out of their Country. Whereupon he turned Papist again, and when Calvin was dead, he wrote all these abominable lies of him, and all the rest (with Schlusselburgius the Lutheran, an enemy of Calvins) do take up the report from this one Lying heretical Papist: and so it becomes a currant fame with them, as if it were as true as the Gospel: Whereupon our writers call to them, provoke them, challenge them to search the Records at Noviodunum, where they say the thing was done, and prove that ever there was such a thing, or else bear the open shame of Liars. But they can bring no proof, but call on us to disprove it: When the City are Papists, and haters of Calvin. But after all this, as God would have it, the Papist Dean of that City, called Jacobus le Vasseur, publisheth at Paris, 1633. the Annals of their Cathedral Church, and therein pouring out his hatred against Calvin, and saying what he can against him, doth yet out of their records clear him of all these accusations, and lets ⟨p. 193⟩the world know that there was never any such thing, and that they had no crime at all against him, but that he turned from the Papists; and that the Major or chief Governor of the City went away with Calvin, when he was forced to fly from his native Country. He recites all the passages of Calvins life there, but professeth that they had no more against him. Thus God confounded the Lying Papists by one of themselves, and the Records of that City, where they said the thing was done. And yet they believe one another, and carry on the Lye to this day.
